The 'M' factor..

Usain Bolt…there couldn’t be a single soul on this earth who haven’t heard about him…well...in case there are such rare species…he is the fastest man on the earth…world record holder for 100 m dash...he has broken his own record twice...and experts believe...no one can break his current record...quite a man...and he has a unique style of celebrating after each win…he poses like a bolt of lightening for the cameras...hence the name 'THE LIGHTENING BOLT'...

And a few months back…some researchers did a unique study for this man….and his running capability….and come up with the even astounding result….they say if ever there was a 100m race between Bolt and Shinkansen (the Japanese bullet train which was till recently the fastest machine running in this world)…..any guesses who will win…Usain Bolt…yes…man, not the machine...and there's no magic in it...just a logical answer...Bolt when runs achieves his top speed in fraction of seconds after starting the race...while Shinkansen takes a few minutes to achieve its top speed...result...by the time Shinkansen would reach its maximum limit...Bolt would have already crossed the finish line and 100m race would be over...

It was Man who designed the machines in the first place…Man who knew limit of his physical capabilities used his genius mind to compensate for the same…but isnt this a classic case of man winning over the machine?
