Like him or loathe him he is a legend he puts the best of U.S.A to shame and G.B has absolutely no one worthy of standing on the same track over 100m or 200m.I think he could compete over 400m, but the long jump is completely different it is so technical.If he could compete at long jump he could cement himself as possible the greatest athlete ever, imagine 100 200 400 both 100&400 relays and long jump in one games world or olympics that really would be tremendous.

Bolt is not the first to hold both world records simultaneously....another Jamaican Donald Quarie also did it
