Anyone with an idea on this?

Question

Most of you who follow sport event especially sprinter, i always have a question in my mind about the world record. which record will be final for human being, this keeps on increasing every time especially in the Olympic games. Now we have a new one from Bolt, are we expecting a faster man like this or is this the final? if so, which one will be final? I'm saying this cause i know it wont *** to zero minutes.

Answer 1

My personal view is that human beings constantly  raise their bar. But with a difference.  They do incrementally and they donot do in jumps and starts. If the great Jamaican   Bolt  set  a world record  , say 9.3 seconds  then the next sprinter will try to up it to 9.2 and not 8.2.They decide on that 9.2 and rigourously  train for it.  9.2 will be broken and they will try for 9.0. One cannot say where and when it will stop. But theoretically it cannot be zero seconds.

equally , look at th e swimmer Michael Phelps. Same
