Usain Bolt's Olympic 100 m triumph triggers jubilation
in Jamaica
Usain Bolt's 100 metres Olympic victory sparked ecstatic celebrations in his
homeland, where national pride was already riding high on the eve of celebrations to
mark 50 years of Jamaica's independence
Unbridled joy from crowds gathered in the centre of Kingston grew louder with every
second as the powerful strides of the world's fastest man took him to the finish line
Bolt's early birthday present to his country, delivered in a blistering 9.63 seconds.
was exactly what hundreds, including many who had journered from the sprinter's
parish of Trelawny, had come to watch together on a big screen. Traffic in the
Jamaican capital came to a standstill as people, braving the cold and ram of tropical
storm Ernesto, sounded horns and clanged por covers
Others mimicked the now famous pose of the double Olympic champion or
cheered each appearance of his compatriot Yohan Blake, who many considered as
Bolt's main nval going into the race but who finished a respectable second with a time
of 9.75 seconds
The passion was just as great closer to the scene of Bolt's histonc feat last night at
the Jamaica House - a bit of the Caribbean island created at the North Greenwich
Arena, London, which has operated as a base for Jamaican fans.
Bolt triggered an endless blanket of noise and hystena. The moment the gun was
fired, the crowd chanted and brayed and hooted and they didn't stop until he was
safely home.
'I am so happy,' said Rosa Nelson, 37, from Edmonton, north London, pausing to
mimic Bolt's trademark archery stance. He represents a small nation, the best of our
small nation presenting itself to the world. We have the fastest man and the fastest
woman. We are confident and we are proud and now we are even proudet."
Saturday's 100 metre gold retention by Jamaican Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce was a
source of pride, but it was just the start. The desire for a country of just 29 million
people to be recognised as unassailable - if only on the 100 metre track-required
total victory in the men's event.
In the Kingston crowd, Mark Green said, 'Let me tell you this, he is the best, none
of them can touch him. We are so proud right now. Happy Jamaica 50.
