    The lightest sub-10" sprinter ever ?...

    Many famous names like Calvin SMITH, Mel LATTANY, Mike MARSH or Kim COLLINS
    come to my mind.
    Your opinion ?...

    I know of a couple around a 150 pounds. So who is less than that?

    Then there was the WRholder/Olympic 100m gold medalist....126 pounds.

            Would you believe a 44.7 out of a 137 pounder?

                So from this analysis, Bolt is relatively the lightest?

                  I really didn't know but had a good idea. It took all of 3 minutes to find two at 150 and one at 148. Don't get why this is taking so long. Height vs weight..???

                  There was this ittie bittie guy out of Thailand, 5-4sh 130 pounds or so...10.2?. Talk about turnover..damn.

                      Percy Williams was a tiny guy,

                      paste...

                      Williams was 5'6" and, during his running career, never more than 126 pounds (his height and weight at the '28 Olympics, making him the smallest man ever to win the Olympic century). Nevertheless, Williams could beat even these more experienced sprinters in races in Vancouver and Seattle.

                      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

                      Where you getting those stats? Most seem a bit heavy. Especially Williams. He was nowhere close to 170 pounds......trust me!

                        It's metric, not imperial!
