“First of all, I can swim faster than you,” Bolt said. “Are you ready for this? Let me say something, let’s analyse this. First of all, I’m taller than him which means my legs are longer than his, my shoulders are broader than yours and my hand reach is longer than yours, that’s three things that prove I can swim faster than him.
“You can probably do freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke, whatever, but I can run on water, easy.”

Funny. Loved watching him run and always enjoy his interviews. He leaves a void in T&F, his talent plus joking around personality meant he was one of the few athletes that could break out of the sport into the mainstream. I think they should replace Ato Bolden with his as the main color commentator.

Hilarious if you think the fact that he has no idea how bad he will get smoked is funny.

To spite him I would do the entire race underwater.

I've seen some pretty funny interviews with him over the years, and read some pretty funny quotes. I think he has a pretty healthy sense of humour by the looks of it.

He knows exactly how much he'll get smoked by. That's why it's funny.

You mean the fact that he said he could run on water didn't tip you off that he was joking?
