Usain Bolt in running to be Time's Person of the Year

The world's fastest man, Jamaica's Usain Bolt, is a runner-up for Time Magazine's Person of the Year 2009. The 6'5" 212 lb sprinter wowed when he broke the 100 meter and 200 meter world records at the 2009 Beijing Olympics. In Berlin, the site where Jesse Owens humiliated the Nazis in the 1936 Olympics, Germans sang Happy Birthday to Bolt. Since then, the world has been captivated with the golden shod, fleet footed phenomenon. He is known for his victory pose to the world, feet planted shoulder's width, one hand pulling back an imaginary bow, the other pointed at the heavens. The sky's the limit for Bolt's success. Congrats.
