Hines also recorded the first legal electronically timed sub-10 second 100 m in winning the 100 metres at the 1968 Olympics. Bob Hayes ran a wind-assisted 9.91 seconds at the 1964 Olympics.

His career spanned from 1979 to 1996 when he last won an Olympic title and subsequently retired. The greatest sprinter of them all is Usain Bolt. A Jamaican sprinter.
