Beating Usain Bolt out of the blocks.
See if you can beat him here.
http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2...pgtype=article It took me about 20 tries, and when I did beat him at last, the message said, "You would have been disqualified because your reaction time was short enough that you would have been thought to false start", or something like that. |

I was doing terrible on my computer, so I tried the phone. Way better. Got 00.003 seconds. I am the Wade Davis of sprinting.

She obviously is not a good judge of size.
She cannot be that stupid.

Maybe, but would it hurt to bring her in for a look? A few hundred bucks in airfare, and if it turns out that she can, you've got an all-pro kick returner. I like to think that there's someone out there who could shatter a world record, but they don't pay attention to it and assume that they're normal. There's some house painter out there who's leaping 9 feet onto his scaffolding every day, or some car mechanic who's lifting cars to move them around, and they have no idea that they're abnormal. Maybe this woman really runs a 7.5 and no one's ever watched her do it.

There's another video of this same woman being unbelievably stupid about something else (something about the number of slices in a pizza), so either it's an act or she's truly unbelievably stupid.

I remember a few of them around here. It would not surprise me if she wraps herself around an idea and can't get out. Just dumb.

.147 on my second try but it was my first try with the sound on.
It's really not that much harder to just click when the numbers start ticking...

First try.
![]() Can You Beat Usain Bolt Out of the Blocks? By GREGOR AISCH, LARRY BUCHANAN and DEREK WATKINS AUG. 14, 2016 Usain Bolt’s reaction time out of the starting blocks in the 100-meter final in Rio was .155 seconds. Try to beat it. Turn up your volume. 00.114 ON YOUR MARK SET BANG Is that you Justin Gatlin? Congratulations. You were faster than Usain Bolt. If you’re upset that this competition is unfair, well, you may be right. Usain Bolt is the world’s fastest man. You, on the other hand, are just ears and a thumb as far as this quiz is concerned. But if there were a (short) list of speed-related things you could beat Usain Bolt at, his reaction time would be near the top. In the 100-meter final in Rio on Sunday night, six of Bolt’s seven opponents reacted faster than he did: |
