The couple was rumored to be dating in early 2020 but publicly announced their relationship in May 2021. Prior to dating ASAP Rocky, Rihanna was in a three-year relationship with Saudi billionaire Hassan Jameel. He is a businessman and deputy president and vice chairman of the Saudi Arabian branch of Abdul Latin Jameel, a family-owned business that’s been in operation since 1945 and serves multiple industries, including automotive and real estate. They began dating in 2017 following his divorce from Tunisian art critic Lina Lazaar. Rihanna and Jameel initially broke up in June of 2018 after Rihanna reportedly said she gets tired of men sometimes. They appeared to get back together a month later. However, it was a sign of things to come as they eventually split for good in January of 2020. me and my date for Oscar Gold Party #bump22 pic.twitter.com/Wycuxc21OS— Rihanna (@rihanna) March 31, 2022 During their time together, there were rumors of engagement and also of pregnancy, but neither were true. When asked if she wants children, Rihanna said, “Without a doubt,” and added that she doesn’t really plan it and that it will all be a part of “God’s plan.” It turns out that a long term relationship between Rihanna and Jameel was not part of the plan. Instead, Rihanna was meant to be with a fellow musical artist. Shortly after her relationship with Jameel ended, she was spotted often hanging out with ASAP Rocky until, several months later, they confirmed they were a couple. One year later, they became parents when their son was born on May 13, 2022. For both Rihanna and ASAP Rocky, whose real name is Rakim Mayers, it’s their first child.

While making an empowering statement about being a black woman, she noted: 'I’m a black woman.

She considered hiring a night nurse to help out early on, but her friends urged her not to, she told Vogue.

Not people who discriminate.

Female rhinos typically give birth to one calf at intervals of every two to three years. A calf will remain with her mother for around two to four years until the next offspring is born. All five species of rhinoceros are considered either critically endangered or vulnerable to being endangered, including the white rhino. Their long and slow gestation period is an obstacle to repopulating the species. The 14-Month HumpNative to areas of the Middle East, northern India and arid Africa, the camel has evolved to survive in the desert and can go without water for up to three weeks. They are often referred to as “ships of the desert\" because these sturdy creatures have served to transport humans and cargo across long distances throughout history. Camels are considered to be ill-tempered with stubborn personalities, even biting, spitting and kicking humans. Their long gestation periods of 13 to 14 months might contribute to their grumpiness. After the gestation period, they give birth to a single calf. Finally Falling OutWith a gestation period of 15 to 16 months, the giraffe has one of the longest gestation periods in the animal kingdom. Known for being the tallest terrestrial animal in the world, the mother gives birth while standing up. The baby calf emerges with her front legs and head first and then falls to the ground, which serves to sever the umbilical cord. The newborn giraffe will already stand 6 feet tall and be able to walk and run within only one hour after birth. Calves remain dependent on their mother’s milk for nine to 12 months. 400-Pound BabyOrcas, also known as killer whales, are typically found in the Antarctic and Arctic, and occasionally off the coast of Oregon, Washington and California. Known for their high intelligence, gestation is typically between13 to 16 months. After gestation, a single calf is born that weighs around 400 pounds and can measure up to 7 feet long. A calf will remain by his mother's side for up to two years.

The walrus is identified through massive tusks that they possess. With males having weights reaching over 4,000 pounds, these marine mammals are among the largest flipped mammals and are second only to the elephant seal. The female walrus becomes sexually mature at the age of four and mates with the dominant males. The gestation period of these mammals lasts about 15 months after which a 100-pound calf is born. \nBlack Rhinoceros (450 days) \nThe black rhino is one of the two rhinoceros species that inhabit Africa which is currently critically endangered. The black rhino is distinct from its white counterpart through the shape of its lip where the black rhino has a hook-shaped lip. The species is further divided into seven subspecies defined by their area of habitation. The black rhino is one of the largest terrestrial mammals in Africa with sizes exceeding 12 feet in length with an average weight of 3,000 pounds.

This bizarre-looking creature carries its young for as long as 15 months.\nDespite the name, they aren't true worms and they aren't made of velvet. Their bodies are covered with sensory hairs, which gives them a velvety appearance.\nThey are considered close relatives of both arthropods (spiders and insects) and true worms (like the earthworm)—making them especially interesting to paleontologists.\n6\nof 12\n Rhinoceros \njohn michael evan potter / Shutterstock\nIt might not come as a surprise that rhinos—because of their sheer size—are next on the list, with a gestation period of about 15 to 18 months, depending on the species.\nThis long gestation period is also an obstacle to replenishing the population. All five species of rhinoceros are endangered or considered vulnerable, and three of the five are considered critically endangered.\n7\nof 12\n Walruses \nU.S. Geological Survey / Flickr / Public Domain\nWalruses have the longest gestation period of all pinnipeds (a group of mammals that includes seals and sea lions), carrying their young for as long as 15 to 16 months.\nSeal and sea lion mothers don't get off easy and carry their offspring for about 330 and 350 days, respectively.

In mammals, reproduction happens when the female carries a zygote in its womb within a defined period, where it develops, and later birth occurs. The period between fertilization and birth is known as the gestation period or pregnancy. The gestation period varies across the different mammalian species. In humans, the gestation period is normally nine months or 270 days. However, the human gestation period is dwarfed by that of many other mammals. \nThe African Elephant (645 days) \nThe African Elephant (Loxidanta) is the genus given to the two species of elephants that inhabit Africa which is the larger African Bush Elephant and the relatively smaller African Forest Elephant. The African elephant is known to be the largest living terrestrial animal on earth with weights exceeding 10,000 pounds. With a gestation period of 645 days, these animals also have the record of having the longest gestation period of any mammal. The female elephants are usually in estrus (in heat) for about seven days where they attract males to mate and begin the 22-month period of gestation. \nThe Sperm Whale (535 days) \nThe Sperm whale (Physeter macrocephalus), is a marine mammal and is the largest toothed predator on earth. With sizes exceeding 60 feet in length and an average weight of 63 tons, the sperm whale is the largest of all toothed whales. The sperm whale also has the longest gestation period of all marine mammals amounting to 525 days after which the female gives birth to a 13-foot newborn calf. \nWalrus (456 days)\n</DOC>\n<DOC>\nDocument [7]: a single calf is born that weighs around 400 pounds and can measure up to 7 feet long. A calf will remain by his mother's side for up to two years. Orca whales have become one of the most contaminated marine animals in the world. Chemical and pollution contamination of the oceans has led orcas to be more susceptible to disease, which most likely causes reproductive difficulties, according to Defenders of Wildlife.

You’re just ready to be done with pregnancy and welcome your new baby! But if you think humans have a long gestation period, just you wait — some mammals spend almost two years pregnant! Here are 15 mammals that have it worse than humans — or nearly as bad.African bush elephantsBernd Zoller / imageBROKER / ShutterstockThe African bush elephant has the longest gestation period of any mammal: a whopping 22 months (almost two years)! Calves (baby elephants) are born between 90 and 135 kg (200 to 300 lbs.), and about one metre (3 ft.) tall. Female elephants have a long gap between calves (4–5 years) and usually only birth one baby at a time, which doesn’t help the problem of the declining elephant populations. It just takes a while to grow a baby that size!Orcas, whales and dolphinsGerard Lacz / ShutterstockWhile most often associated with the Pacific Northwest, these black and white whales live in every ocean on Earth. They hunt and communicate by echolocation, and technically belong to the dolphin family. Orca pods (family groups) are matrilineal — after a 17-month pregnancy, mothers are helped by other females in the pod because males won’t leave their mother.Whales in general have a long gestation period — between 10 to 17 months — and so do dolphins: the spinner dolphin and the bottlenose dolphin have pregnancies lasting between 11 and 12 months respectively.Indian rhinocerosArno Burgi / EPA / ShutterstockThese one-horned rhinoceros, native to the Indian subcontinent,\n</DOC>\n<DOC>\nDocument [9]: AMAZING FACTSBIG QUESTIONSENTERTAINMENTENTERTAINMENT#TBTMOVIESMUSICPOP CULTURETVHISTORYHISTORYARCHAEOLOGYBAD OLD DAYS WITH A.J.

Some clock in at just a few weeks, making any human green with envy, while others can last more than a year. Here are 10 notable gestation times for animals around the globe. The lesson? Be thankful that you’re not a pregnant elephant.1. ELEPHANTS: 640-660 DAYSElephants are pregnant for a long time. Like really, really long. At an average of 95 weeks, the gestation period is more than double the length of a human pregnancy, so it shouldn't come as a shock that female elephants don't often have more than four offspring during their lifetimes. Who has the time?2. HIPPOS: 8 MONTHSA photo of a mother hippo and her baby in Uganda / Yes, it takes less time to make a hippopotamus than it takes to make a human.3. GIRAFFE: 14-15 MONTHSBaby giraffes can weigh more than 150 pounds and can be around 6 feet tall. Another fascinating tidbit: giraffes give birth standing up, so it's pretty normal for a baby to fall 6 feet to the ground.4. KILLER WHALE: 17 MONTHSThere’s a reason for the long wait: after that 17 months, Baby Shamu emerges weighing anywhere from 265 to 353 pounds and measuring about 8.5 feet long. Yikes.5.

Take Our A-Z-Animals Elephants Quiz©Nicolas Primola/Shutterstock.comThere is a correlation between intelligence and gestation length with some of the most advanced animals having the longest gestation periods. Chimpanzees have a gestation similar in length to humans. Human pregnancy is 9 months with a chimpanzee pregnancy averaging 8 months. Dolphins, another animal with advanced intelligence, have an even longer gestation of around a year. Researchers hypothesize that in order for the elephants’ brains to be fully developed to the point of surviving outside the womb, elephants need longer gestation. After all, the elephant has the largest brain of all land animals!How long are elephants pregnant?African elephants are pregnant for about 22 months on average. This gives them the longest gestation period among all mammals. Asian elephants have a more variable gestation period, they’re pregnant from 18 to 22 months. Not surprisingly, their gestation period is shorter as they’re on average smaller than the two African elephant species.What other animals have long pregnancies?An elephant newborn©Martin Mecnarowski/Shutterstock.comLooking at other mammals, the giraffe, rhino and walrus all have pregnancies longer than a year.Giraffe: The giraffe pregnancy lasts around 15 months, with scientists believing they need the time to grow big enough to survive the 6-foot drop at birth. Baby giraffes are born tall enough to play basketball at 6.5 feet tall!Rhinos: Rhinos have a pregnancy that lasts 15-18 months. Good thing for the mom that baby rhinos are not born with horns!

Fish lay lots of eggs and hope that a few of them survive to adulthood. Mammals usually take a different approach. Instead of “shotgunning” their kids into the world, mammals spend a lot more time caring for and developing their children before sending them off on their own. As such, the success rates for mammal children are much higher than that of clownfish or starfish, for example.Additionally, mammals carry their young for much, much longer than creatures who lay eggs. In the case of whales, carrying their young is an especially long process. When a whale mother does give birth, however, it’s to a fully functioning whale baby, albeit a small one.Why do whales have such a long gestation period?Whales are large and have advanced brains, both of which require a longer gestation period.©CampCrazy Photography/Shutterstock.comPart of the reason that whales, along with most mammals, have longer gestation periods is because of brain development. Overall, mammals have much more advanced brains and need a long time in the womb to develop them. Whales are some of the smartest animals in the world and consequently, have long gestation periods. Even more, potentially the smartest member of the whale/dolphin family, the orca, has the longest gestation of 15-18 months.Other animals with a high level of brain development when they are born are creatures like elephants. Elephants are well-known to be some of the smartest animals to walk the earth and consequently, have a gestation period of 18-22 months. Humans have it rough (around 9 months), but elephant mamas have to carry their babies for nearly two years!How big are whale babies when they are born?A Humpback Whale with her calf in thePacific Ocean.

World records in both the 100 and 200 meters. An Olympic résumé unequaled by any other sprinter in the history of the Summer Games.There is little doubt, if any, that Usain Bolt is the greatest sprinter in the history of track and field. At the very least, he is the most accomplished and decorated athlete to ever grace the sport.He began his Olympic career at the 2004 Athens Games as an 18-year-old unknown, quickly bowing out with a fifth-place finish in the first round of the 200. Then came the Beijing Games in 2008, and a legend was born. Bolt won gold in the 200 on Thursday night, giving him a 100-200 double gold in each of the past three Olympic Games.Now that he’s finished with individual events — Bolt is still expected to run as part of Jamaica’s relay team in Rio — let’s take a look back at his unbelievable run through the Summer Games.2008 100 Meters (9.69 seconds – World Record)It’s a common sight now — seen again during the semifinals of the 200 meters — but Bolt was so far ahead of the pack in his record-setting 100 in Beijing that he was able to slow down and smile for the cameras as he crossed the finish line.“We've never seen anything like that before,” former 400-meter champion Michael Johnson said at the time.Bolt stopped after his win to strike an\n</DOC>\n<DOC>\nDocument [9]: The Jamaican set his world record in the 100m sprint back at the 2009 IAAF World Championships, where he was clocked an insane 9.58 seconds. During the sprint, Bolt reached a top speed of 44.72km/h.\nAs for the 200m, Bolt originally set the world record with a 19.30 at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, which bested Michael Johnson’s record by just 0.02 seconds. But he crushed that record at the 2009 World Championships with a blazing 19.19.\nBolt’s 4 x 100m world record came with Team Jamaica at the London 2012 Olympics. Yohan Blake, Nesta Carter, Michael Frater, and Bolt finished in 36.84 seconds to edge out the United States.\nHow many gold medals has Bolt won?\nUsain Bolt holds the gold medal after winning the Men’s 200m event at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games | FABRICE COFFRINI/AFP via Getty Images\nOver the course of his prolific sprinting career, Bolt has competed in four different Olympic Games. He failed to medal in the 200m at the 2014 Athens Olympics, but he rebounded with gold medal performances in the 100m and the 200m at the 2018 Beijing Olympics.\nBolt returned to the Olympics in 2012 to win gold medals in the 100m, 200m, and 4 x 100 relay in London to sweep his three races. And of, course, he swept the same three events in Rio in 2016.\nThe Jamaican has competed in 10 Olympic races throughout his career, and he’s won gold in eight of them. Bolt doesn’t have a single Olympic medal that isn’t gold, which is fitting for the greatest to ever do it.\nIs Usain Bolt competing in the Toyko Olympics?\n“Made in the Image of God thats A Selfie”~JayZ pic.twitter.com/GQbkAofG0v— Usain St. Leo Bolt (@usainbolt) July 25, 2021\nUnfortunately for track fans (and fans of sports in general), Bolt has retired from Olympic competition.

It was these factors that played a pivotal role in his decision to draw the curtains on his glittering career.\nBolt’s impressive collection of accolades includes a staggering eight Olympic gold medals, along with 11 World Championship gold medals, two silvers, and one bronze.\nThis unforeseen turn of events marked the end of an era, leaving fans and athletes alike to reflect on the remarkable journey of the world’s fastest man. Usain Bolt’s legacy endures, as does the memory of his electrifying sprints, records, and the indelible mark he left on the world stage of athletics.\nHis top speed, the speed curve, the Olympic record, and the unforgettable world record runs are all part of the captivating story of this legendary sprinter.\nWhat did Usain Bolt do After Retiring?\nUsain Bolt retired from professional athletics in 2017, and has since then embarked on a diverse and dynamic journey, exploring various avenues beyond the track. He has channeled his energy and efforts into a range of pursuits that reflect his multifaceted interests and passions.\nOne of his endeavors after Usain Bolt retired has been an active engagement in attending events and participating in presentations related to advertising campaigns.\nThis strategic involvement has not only allowed him to maintain a strong brand image but has also solidified his presence in the world of marketing and promotions.

Bolt has amassed 20 world titles, split between several World Championships and Olympic gold medals. Born in Jamaica, Bolt displayed a love for sports from a very young age, and stood out to cricket coaches for his speed, who then suggested he move to track and field.After eye-catching performances at the high school and world junior level, Bolt went on to compete at several World Championships and the 2004, 2008, 2012, and 2016 Summer Olympic Games. At the Olympics, Bolt became the first to ever win three consecutive golds in the 100m, 200m, and 4x100m races (though his 2016 gold in the 4x100m was later stripped because of a teammate’s failed drug test). Usain Bolt holds the world record in all three of these sprint events.Born: August 21, 1986 (21-08-1986)Education: The University of the West Indies-MonaNet Worth: $90 millionOccupation: Retired Professional Track & Field AthleteHeight: 6’5” (1.96m)Weight: 207 lbs\n</DOC>\n<DOC>\nDocument [12]: Usain Bolt values his eight Olympic gold medals over his world records\nIOCGangwon 2024Paris 2024Milano Cortina 2026LA 2028Brisbane 2032MuseumShopOlympic Refuge FoundationEnglishOlympic GamesAthletesSportsNewsOlympic ChannelLet's MoveUsain Bolt values his eight Olympic gold medals over his world recordsThe Jamaican sprinter said in an interview: \"It's always going to be the [Olympic] gold medals.\"2 minBy Ed KnowlesUsain BOLTAthletics (2019 Getty Images)Usain Bolt is widely regarded in track & field athletics as the best sprinter of all-time.\nHis individual world records, set at the 2009 World Athletics Championships in Berlin in the 100m and 200m, still stand, as targets for the top men at the Tokyo 2020 Games in 2021.\nThe times of 9.58s in the 100m and 19.19s in the 200m may well be etched into the minds of athletics fans but, for Bolt, the Olympic triumphs mean more.\n\"It's always going to be the [Olympic] gold medals,\" Bolt said to CNN Sport.\n\"I think that's what really stamped my authority on the sport, you know what I mean, I showed my dominance throughout the years.”Usain Bolt Breaks 100m World Record in Beijing 2008Usain Bolt: Exercise regime still important\nBolt was back-to-back Olympic champion three times in the 100 and 200m at Beijing 2008, London 2012, and Rio 2016.\n\"I'm very proud of being the fastest man in the world, but it takes so much to do three back-to-back Olympic and win those, so for me I'm most proud of my gold medals.\"\nHe also holds two 4x100m relay golds.\nSince retiring from the sport in 2017, Bolt has retained his respect for looking after his body.\n\"For me, you kind of learn and understand that exercise is very, very important, even just walking just to keep yourself healthy, you know what I mean,\" he said.\n</DOC>\n<DOC>\nDocument [13]: ContentSkip to Main ContentAccessibility HelpMenuWhen search suggestions are available use up and down arrows to review and enter to select.SearchSearchSign InQuick LinksNewsSportsRadioMusicListen LiveTVWatchsportsTop StoriesPWHLHockeyOlympic SportsVideoShowsPodcastsPlayer's Own VoiceAll SportsMore Usain Bolt: 'The greatest sprinter that ever lived' | CBC Sports LoadedSportsOlympicsSummer SportsTrack and FieldUsain Bolt: 'The greatest sprinter that ever lived'With 19 major championships to his name, including eight Olympic gold medals and 11 world titles, Jamaican sprinting legend Usain Bolt will walk away from the track as the best of all time.Despite London letdown, Jamaican legend's career unmatched in track historyDoug Harrison · CBC Sports · Posted: Aug 05, 2017 5:49 PM EDT | Last Updated: August 6, 2017Usain Bolt will wave goodbye to fans following a legendary sprint career after the world championships in London, England.

This is as good evidence as you’ll find that he is the fastest man in the world. \nQuestion: Why Did Bolt retire?\nAnswer: Usain Bolt retired shortly after the 2017 World Championships in London. At this event, he sustained a serious hamstring injury and this is believed to be a key factor in his decision to retire at this time. \nPost navigation\n← Previous PostNext Post →\n \nLeave a Comment Cancel ReplyYour email address will not be published.

Bolt was born to his parents, Jennifer and Wellesley Bolt, on August 21, 1986 in Trelawny, Jamaica. His full legal name is Usain St. Leo Bolt, and the relation of his speed to his last name is merely a coincidence. He is commonly referred to by his media nickname, “Lightning Bolt.”How many Olympic Medals does Usain Bolt have?Usain Bolt has amassed eight Olympic gold medals, all from the 100m 200m and 4x100m sprint events. One gold was stripped after a teammate failed a drug test after the Games. Bolt has only gold medals from the Olympics, as he went on a perfect 9-0 run from 2008 to 2016. He did enter the Games in 2004, but he failed to make it past the first round in the 200m, primarily due to a bothersome hamstring injury.PreviousNextPages Related to Usain Bolt Bio And FactsHistory of Track and FieldHistory of AthleticsTrack And Field BiographiesTrack And Field ArticlesWhen Does Track And Field Season Start?Carl Lewis Bio And FactsPreviousNextCompanyAboutCareersContactContact UsAdvertisingLegalTermsPrivacySocialFacebookInstagramLinkedInMediumPinterestTwitterYouTubeDo not share my Personal Information.Rookie Road may earn a commission when you buy through links on our site.Copyright ©2017-2024 Digital Sports Holdings LLC All rights reserved.\n</DOC>\n<DOC>\nDocument [16]: Athletes in Stuttgart, Germany.Usain’s breakthrough finally came in 2007 when he broke the 30-year old Jamaican 200m record.

Bolt starred for Jamaica at three Olympic Games and several World Championship events. He retired from the sport of running after the 2017 World Championships.Titles and AwardsEight-time Olympic gold medalist11-time World Championship gold medalist2005 CAC Championship gold medalist2014 Commonwealth Games gold medalistUsain Bolt’s medal and trophy case has earned him the title of perhaps the greatest sprinter of all time.

From August 2008 to August 2016, Bolt won 11 of the 12 races that he entered. After 2008, Bolt has only lost to 4 separate men in both the 100m and 200m races; only 4 men have ever finished ahead of Usain Bolt in an individual sprint (post 2008).Personal LifeUsain St. Leo Bolt was born on August 21, 1986, in Trelawny, Jamaica to Jennifer and Wellesley Bolt. His parents were both grocers, and Usain, along with his brother Sadeeki and sister Shrine helped them run the business. Bolt was always enveloped by sports at a young age, and was in fact a skilled cricket and soccer player in his youth. However, during his high school days his coaches pointed him to track and field where he would truly be a star.Bolt revealed in an autobiography that he suffered from scoliosis, making his left leg a half-inch shorter than his right. It is unknown whether this condition had a great effect on his extraordinary performance levels. He has been known to be Catholic, making the sign of the cross before races throughout his\n</DOC>\n<DOC>\nDocument [19]: the International Association of Athletes Federations (IAAF) World Junior Championships in Kingston, where he won the individual gold medal in the 200m. He left this meet with three medals, two of which were silver medals in the 4x100m and 4x400m relay events. This was the start that resulted in him winning two IAAF Rising Star Awards.In 2004, Usain Bolt broke the World Junior Record in the 200m with a time of 19.93 seconds at the CARIFTA Games in Bermuda. Although suffering from a hamstring injury, he managed to qualify for the 2005 IAAF World T&F Championships in Helsinki but had to pull out of the meet due to his injury. The next year disaster struck once more when he had to pull out of the 2006 Commonwealth Games in Australia due to another hamstring injury suffered while running the 4×400 relay for the IAAF High Performance Centre’s Team at the Gibson Relays in Kingston. His recovery later that year saw him set a personal best in the 200m and saw him placed second at the IAAF World Cup of Athletes in Stuttgart, Germany.Usain’s breakthrough finally came in 2007 when he broke the 30-year old Jamaican 200m record. From there he went on to win two silver medals, one for the 200m and the other for the 4x100m relay in Osaka, Japan.In 2008, however, Usain Bold became a legend with his three golds for sprinting events at a single Olympics as well as breaking the records for all three. But this was only the start of his Olympic glory, as he gained gold medals for each of these events at the following two Olympic games as well, achieving what is known as the “Triple Triple”, a day before his 30th birthday at the 2016 Olympics in Rio.Besides his nine Olympic Gold Medals Usain has won eleven World T&F Championship titles and is the current world record holder for the 100m and 200m sprints as well as the 4x100m relay. He also holds the records for the three fastest times ever run and, on the world all-time list, holds five of the top ten times ever run in the 200m.Usain\n</DOC>\n<DOC>\nDocument [20]: Usain BoltSubscribe To NewslettersSign In PROFILEUsain BoltAthlete$31M2018 The World's Highest-Paid Athletes Earningsas of 6/4/18Photo by Asanka Brendon Ratnayake/Anadolu Agency/Getty ImagesAbout Usain BoltThe greatest sprinter of all time retired from the track after the 2017 World Championships in August.

He swept the 100 and 200 meters at all three Games, and helped Jamaica win the 4x100 relay in two of them. (Jamaica's relay team also won in 2008 but was later disqualified after one of Bolt's teammates, Nesta Carter, was sanctioned for doping.)Beyond the Olympics, Bolt also won 14 world championship medals — 11 of them gold.NEVER MISS A MEDAL: Sign up for our Olympic newsletter nowWANT BEHIND-THE-SCENES ACCESS IN TOKYO? Sign up for Olympic texts to get exclusive access to the GamesWhat is he doing now?After retiring from track and field, Bolt first turned his attention to his other sporting love: soccer. He famously tried out for a professional team in Australia, the Central Coast Mariners, and spent about eight weeks with the team — even appearing in a few exhibitions. But ultimately, the soccer career didn't pan out.In the years since, Bolt has dived into music. He's produced several songs and has spoken about wanting to bring Jamaica's dancehall genre to an international audience. And he's also become a father. Bolt and his girlfriend, Kasi Bennett, welcomed their first child in May 2020 — a daughter named Olympia Lightning. Bennett gave birth to twin boys, St. Leo and Thunder, earlier this summer.How fast is Usain Bolt?Bolt holds the world record in the 100-meter dash of 9.58 seconds. And no other track athlete has ever come within one-tenth of a second of that record; Tyson Gay and Yohan Blake both recorded times of 9.69. To put that in context: Bolt's top speed during his record-setting run was about 27.7 miles per hour.Is he still the fastest man in the world?Bolt still holds the world record, so yes, he is still considered the world's fastest man.

In short, Bolt boasts eight Olympic medals and they're all gold.In addition to the Olympic medals, he has won 14 medals at World Championships between 2007 and 2017. He won 11 golds, two silvers and settled for bronze at the 2017 Worlds in London where he famously limped out injured during the 4x100m relay to draw the curtain on his career.He initially appeared to have won a triple-triple (three Olympic golds at three consecutive Olympic Games') but he was stripped of his 4x100m relay gold from Beijing 2008 due to his teammate Nesta Carter being found guilty of a doping violation.Is Usain Bolt retired?There'll obviously be no more medals for Bolt as he has indeed retired from professional sprinting and there's no coming back.Since retiring he has embarked on a professional football career which unfortunately didn't last longer than a handful of appearances in warm-up games for Central Coast Mariners of the Australian A-League.He left the club after eight weeks and declared his \"sports life is over\".Since then, he has enjoyed a growing family with long-time girlfriend Kasi Bennett.

There are eight Olympic golds – which also made him the first sprinter in history to win gold medals in the 100m and 200m at three consecutive Games – 11 World Championship golds and world records in the 100m, 200m and 4x100m relay that no athlete has since come close to touching.\n \n Now 34 and retired from athletics since 2017, Bolt has had time to reflect on a remarkable career.

Retired since the conclusion of the 2017 World Championships, Bolt says that his competitive juices are still there, and that “just watching” the Olympics this summer “will be tough.”\nBut 34-year-old track legend says he’s tempering his inclination to jump onto the track in Tokyo, by being social and also encouraging others, especially athletically inclined Olympic fans, to exercise and train to their own limits too. As such, Bolt has partnered with Michelob ULTRA, and this Saturday, July 24, is opening a nationwide tab to allow bar-goers across the country to enjoy a refreshing Michelob ULTRA on him.

At the peak of his career, he was the highest-paid track and field athlete of all time and made around $20-30 million a year. Though some of this came from track competition prize money, the majority of Bolt’s worth came from endorsement deals he signed. Some of these major brands included Puma, Visa, Nissan, and Gatorade. He also signed a deal with Harper Collins for his autobiography that was worth several million dollars.Running CareerUsain Bolt’s running career began in his early teens, where he made a name for himself as a bright young sprinter. However, early in high school, Bolt spent more time playing cricket and soccer, where he stood out for his outstanding pace. It was here that his coaches advised him to focus on running, and he shifted to the guidance of coaches Pablo McNeil and Dwayne Narrett.In 2001, Bolt began to make a name for himself on the global stage. That year, he represented Jamaica at the CARIFTA games and the World Youth Championships, where he earned very respectable silver medals. By just 15 years old, Bolt was already near his final height of 6’5”. He had several doubters because of his height, but he shattered those doubts once he equaled and later broke the world junior record in the 200 meters (20.13 seconds, 19.93 seconds).Usain Bolt went on to fight a few injuries in his career, but nothing that stopped him from being at the very front of the spotlight for the length of his professional career.

Following a somewhat disappointing appearance at the Athens 2004 Olympics, he surged to unprecedented heights. Bolt clinched gold medals in both the 100m and 200m in three consecutive Olympics: Beijing 2008, London 2012, and Rio 2016. This remarkable feat has never been matched in sprinting history. Even the legendary Carl Lewis, with his back-to-back 100m golds in 1984 and 1988, couldn’t emulate Bolt’s triple gold achievement.\nMoreover, Usain Bolt didn’t just win; he shattered records. He etched his name in history by setting world records in the 100m and 200m at Beijing 2008, an electrifying world record run that showcased Usain Bolt’s top speed. It’s worth noting that Usain Bolt achieved these records while following a speed curve that saw him reach maximum speed.\nThe speed of the lightning bolt on the track was a spectacle to behold. In the 100m world record run, he reached a maximum speed that left the world awestruck. His average speed, calculated at miles per hour, was nothing short of astonishing. Usain Bolt broke not only the previous record but also his own record. This redefined the limits of what was believed possible in the world of track and field events.\nIn addition to his individual accomplishments, Usain Bolt contributed to Jamaica’s 4x100m relay victories in all three of these Olympics, solidifying his position as a sprinting icon. Regrettably, the Beijing 2008 medal was revoked in 2017 due to a teammate’s failed drug test.\nWorld Championships\nWhen it comes to the World Championships, Bolt’s reign is equally awe-inspiring. From 2009 to 2015, he achieved a remarkable clean sweep, winning gold in the 100m, 200m, and 4x100m events in all editions. However, for the 100m in the 2011 South Korea championship, where he was disqualified due to a false start.\n</DOC>\n<DOC>\nDocument [27]: His consistent dominance showcased not only his own record-breaking abilities but also his capacity to perform in top speed conditions.\nWith 11 gold medals, Usain Bolt stands as the most decorated male athlete in the history of World Championships. Only American female track and field sensation Allyson Felix boasts more gold medals in the competition, with 13.\nUsain Bolt’s world records, achieved in world records simultaneously, remain a testament to his unparalleled speed and extraordinary sprinting legacy. His name is etched in the track and field history, casting a long shadow over the world’s running tracks for years to come.\nUsain Bolt’s Top Speed Records\nThe Commonwealth Games With Usain Bolt\nUsain Bolt, renowned for his lightning-fast speed on the track, achieved notable success at the Commonwealth Games. This exhibited his remarkable talent in a diverse sporting landscape.\nAt the 2006 Melbourne Commonwealth Games, Usain Bolt made his mark by securing two silver medals in the 200m and 4x100m relay events. While he didn’t clinch the gold, his performance demonstrated his potential as a sprinting powerhouse. Notably, Jamaica set its own record with Usain Bolt’s powerful runs at these games.\nIn 2014, Bolt returned to the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. This time, he decided to skip the individual events but still contributed to Jamaica’s 4x100m relay team.\nThe Jamaican quartet, anchored by Bolt, surged to victory, earning the gold medal. Jamaica won the 4x100m relay, and Usain Bolt ran a pivotal leg, showcasing his top speed.\nUsain Bolt’s participation in the Commonwealth Games may have been sporadic, but his presence and impact were undeniable. His achievements in the 4x100m relay event added another layer to his illustrious sprinting career. This amplified his versatility as an athlete on the international stage.\nBolt’s ability to set his own records and clinch victories further solidified his legendary status.\nUsain Bolt’s Fitness Regimen\n</DOC>\n<DOC>\nDocument [28]: Teamwork, Patience for success View All Speakers Ask Us A [email protected] Usain Bolt JamaicaThe fastest man on the planet, 9 Olympic Gold Medals Fee Range € P.O.AUsain BoltThe first man to set three world records at a single OlympicsRegarded as “the most naturally gifted athlete the world has ever seen”The greatest sprinter of all time retired from the track after the 2017 World ChampionshipsIn 2008, Usain Bolt became the first man to win three sprinting events at a single Olympics since Carl Lewis in 1984. He is also the first man to set world records in three events at a single Olympics. These and other accomplishments have earned him the title of “the most naturally gifted athlete the world has ever seen”. His Olympic and other athletic accomplishments, however, started a number of years earlier.Usain, who hails from Kingston, Jamaica, first showed his gift of speed at the age of fourteen. He amazed with his speed when competing at regional championships in western Jamaica and national meets. This applied not only to Jamaica but to meets across the wider Caribbean as well.Usain Bolt began his running career taking part in the 80 hurdles event in Class Three at Western Champions which were held in the campus of his Alma Mater William Knibb Memorial High in Math Brae, Trelawny. He came third and received the Bronze medal. Due to his height, Usain was entered into the high jump event and was also favoured to play cricket as a fast bowler. These ideals were put to rest in 2002, when, at the Western Championship finals at Catherine Hall, the young Usain won the 200m in 20.3 seconds. He went on, the same year, to win both the 200m and 400m events at the CARIFTA Trials, going on to win four gold medals in Nassau, Bahamas. From there, he went on to take part in the International Association of Athletes Federations (IAAF) World Junior Championships in Kingston, where he won the individual gold medal in the 200m.

But none of us has produced, in my opinion, the consistency and longevity that Bolt has. So to this point, he has to be considered the greatest,” Michael Johnson once said about Bolt.\nThe closest comparison, perhaps, will be the legendary Carl Lewis, who won back to back 100m golds at the 1984 and 1988 editions, whilst clinching a gold and silver in the 200m events.\nBy setting the 100m and 200m world records at Beijing 2008, Bolt became the first sprinter since fellow Jamaican Don Quarrie in 1976 to hold both world records simultaneously.\nBolt had also won the 4x100m gold medals in all three editions but was unfortunately stripped off the Beijing medal in 2017 after teammate Nesta Carter failed a drug test.\nUsain Bolt at World Championships\nFrom 2009 to 2015, Bolt won every 100m, 200m and 4x100m gold medals on offer at the biennial meet, barring the 100m at the 2011 edition in South Korea, where he was disqualified due to a false start.\nWith 11 gold medals, Bolt is the most decorated male athlete of all time at the World Championships. Overall, only American female track and field star Allyson Felix has more gold medals in the competition with 13.\nThe Lighting Bolt may have hung up his sprinting spikes in 2017, but Usain Bolt’s record is set to rule the running tracks around the world for years to come.\n</DOC>\n<DOC>\nDocument [30]: The 2012 London Olympics bore witness to Bolt’s continued dominance, with gold in the 100m, 200m, and 4x100m relay. What sets Usain Bolt apart is that he’s the first sprinter to secure an astounding six gold medals in sprint events. He’s also the first to successfully defend both the 100m and 200m titles.\nAdditionally, under Bolt’s leadership, the Jamaican team set a new record. They scorched through the 4x100m relay in an astonishing 36.84 seconds during the 2012 London Olympics.\nWorld Championships\nOften dubbed the “world’s fastest man,” Carl Lewis left an indelible mark in the sporting world. In the inaugural World Championships of 1983 in Helsinki, he set the stage, winning gold in the 100m, 4x100m relay, and long jump.\nIn the 1987 Rome Games, he once again ascended the podium, securing gold in the 100m, the 4x100m relay, and the long jump. His performance in the 1991 Tokyo World Championships was no less impressive. There he earned gold in the 100m and the 4x100m relay, along with a silver in the long jump.\nA different shade of glory emerged in 1993 in Stuttgart when Lewis clinched bronze in the 200m, showcasing his versatility across sprint events.\nIn the footsteps of the legendary Lewis, Usain Bolt started his World Championships journey in 2007 in Osaka. Thre he bagged silver in both the 200m and the 4x100m relay.\nBolt’s unparalleled ascent began in 2009, at the Berlin World Championships. Not only did he secure gold medals in the 100m, 200m, and the 4x100m relay, but also etched his name in history as the “world’s fastest man.” His reaction time and maximum speed were unmatched, setting new standards in sprinting.\n</DOC>\n<DOC>\nDocument [31]: Usain Bolt first took the Olympics by storm in 2008 at the Summer Games in Beijing. That year, the Jamaican sprinter won gold medals in both the 100m and 200m sprint.\nThe next two Olympic Games, at London 2012 and Rio De Janeiro 2016, the man who would become known as “Lightning Bolt” would win both races again, while also adding another gold medal at each Olympiad with Team Jamaica in the 4x100m relay. In all, the track legend ended up tallying up a total of eight golds during his time as an Olympian.\nBut the now-retired track phenom says that it wasn’t until a few “disappointing” performances in 2007 that he dug deep to find the motivation to improve.\n“I personally wanted to win in ‘07. I thought I was ready, but afterward, my coach told me straight that I didn’t win because I wasn’t well prepared.”\nThat summer at the 2007 World Athletics Championships in Osaka, Japan, Bolt won a silver medal, after coming in 2nd place behind American sprinter Tyson Gay, in the 200m. Bolt and Team Jamaica also came in 2nd place in the 4x100m relay, again bested by Team USA.\nThereafter, Bolt explained he became much more coachable, and trained harder under his coach with the 2008 Summer Olympics in his sights.\n“That next season, I started and decided that anything my coach said t0 do, do it. So, that year (2008) I was super fit, I was ready, on point.”\nBolt adds that training to his limit and hitting the weights helped transform him into the Olympic legend he is, starting with his breakout in 2008. At that Olympic Games in Beijing, Bolt’s incredible performance made history, when he won gold in the 100m, setting a new world record of 9.69 seconds.\nMORE FOR YOUGoogle Chrome Warning Issued For All Windows UsersAs Blue Beams Rain In Helldivers 2 There s One Player On The Cyborg HomeworldWhy You Should Stop Sending Texts From Your Apple iMessage App\nRelated: Lindsey Vonn on mental health, what makes the Olympics special\n</DOC>\n<DOC>\nDocument [32]: Usain Bolt Bio - Pro Sports Bio\nSkip to content\n \nNFL\nNBA\nMLB\nSoccer\nTennis\nHockey\nRugby\nMMA\nBoxing\nVolleyball\nGolf\nRacing\nOther\nAbout \nNFL\nNBA\nMLB\nSoccer\nTennis\nHockey\nRugby\nMMA\nBoxing\nVolleyball\nGolf\nRacing\nOther\nAbout \n \nMain Menu\n \nNFL\nNBA\nMLB\nSoccer\nTennis\nHockey\nRugby\nMMA\nBoxing\nVolleyball\nGolf\nRacing\nOther\nAbout \n \nHomeRacingUsain Bolt Bio \n \nUsain Bolt BioRacing / By \nJoe Elvin \n About Latest Posts Joe ElvinJoe loves combining his career and love of writing with his passion for sports.

Not forgetting another 4x100m gold (37.27). This feat put him amongst the top athletes of all-time in any sport.\nThe best there ever was. The best there ever will be\nCC-BY Agência Brasil / Wikipedia\nAugust 2016 – Olympic Games, Estádio Olímpico, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil\nBolt had already claimed legendary status back in 2012 but if anyone doubted that he was the greatest sprinter of all time they’d have no argument after he completed a triple sprint double! 3 Olympic Games, 6 gold medals in the 100m (9.81) and 200m (19.78). Not forgetting another 4x100m gold (37.27). This feat put him amongst the top athletes of all-time in any sport.\nBolts final appearance on the track before his retirement was painful for most to watch. Justin Gatlin forgot to read the script, taking home the gold medal, whilst Bolt finished in third place (9.95 seconds) after a slow start out of the blocks picking up his first-ever bronze in the championships. Heartache quickly followed as he literally crashed out of the 4x100m final, tumbling to the ground with a hamstring injury. Heroically Bolt refused aid, and dragged himself across the finish line one last time to a standing ovation from the crowd. \nBolt says goodbye\n© evyamcs / Depositphotos\nAugust 2017 – World Championships, Olympic Stadium, London, United Kingdom\n</DOC>\n<DOC>\nDocument [40]: I want to be among greats Muhammad Ali and Pelé.— Usain Bolt on his sporting legacy prior to his final Olympics, 9 August 2016.[233]\nAt the 2016 Rio Olympics, Bolt won the 100 metres gold medal with a time of 9.81 seconds.[234] With this win, Bolt became the first athlete to win the event three times at the Olympic Games.[234] Bolt followed up his 100 m win with a gold medal in the 200 m, which also makes him the first athlete to win the 200 m three times at the Olympic Games.[235] Bolt ran the anchor leg for the finals of the 4 × 100 m relay and secured his third consecutive and last Olympic gold medal in the event.[236] With that win, Bolt obtained the \"triple-triple\", three sprinting gold medals in three consecutive Olympics, and finished his Olympic career with a 100% win record in finals.[236] However, in January 2017, Bolt was stripped of the 4 × 100 relay gold from the Beijing Games in 2008 because his teammate Nesta Carter was found guilty of a doping violation.[237]\n2017 season\nBolt after injuring his hamstring in the 4x100 m relay final of the 2017 World Athletics Championships\nBolt took a financial stake in a new Australia-based track and field meeting series – Nitro Athletics. He performed at the inaugural meet in February 2017 and led his team (Bolt All-Stars) to victory. The competition featured variations on traditional track and field events. He committed himself to three further editions.[238][239]\nIn 2017, the Jamaican team was stripped of the 2008 Olympics 4×100 metre title due to Nesta Carter's disqualification for doping offences. Bolt, who never failed a dope test, was quoted by the BBC saying that the prospect of having to return the gold was \"heartbreaking\".[240] The banned substance in Carter's test was identified as methylhexanamine, a nasal decongestant sometimes used in dietary supplements.\n</DOC>",
