Find Out Why Gatlin May Be Responsible for Usain Bolt’s Tumble

Soon after winning the 200m final, Bolt was hit by a cameraman who banged into him from behind.

Turns out, only a man on wheels can take down Usain Bolt.

Shortly after the Jamaican great won a fourth 200-meter title and a 10th gold overall at the world championships, a cameraman on a two-wheel vehicle banged into Bolt from behind.

Suddenly, the Olympic champion was down on his back, flipping over before getting back on his feet and then briefly holding his left leg. After regaining his composure, he walked back to the cameraman to make sure he was OK, too.

“It took me out pretty well,” Bolt said. “But I’m OK. No issues so I’m happy about it.”

However, soon after, Bolt put another twist to the tale.

“The rumor I’m trying to start right now is that Justin Gatlin paid him off. So, that’s what I’m going with,” Bolt said, with Gatlin sitting right next to him.

The offending cameraman hit a metal rail on the side of the track and veered right into the back of Bolt. He hit the Jamaican in the legs and both fell backward onto the track.
