Record Breaking 100m Run Hits YouTube Nine Hours Before NBC Airs Race

Well that didn’t take long. At 10:30 a.m. EST Jamaican sprinter Usain Bolt broke the world record in the 100 meters, running the distance in an insane 9.69 seconds (without even really trying). NBC won’t broadcast the race until prime-time tonight, but you can see it now on YouTube. The screenshot above, taken at 10:45 a.m. EST, shows the race had been uploaded 13 minutes before, less than two minutes after the race went final.
