Can Usain Bolt's parents/brothers etc. run fast?

Anyone know?

Well i think his parents are out of the question as they are old, no idea if he has any younger brothers or sisters. Even then if he did have, theres no guarantee that they would be as fast as he is.

BBC interviewed his family it was shown before the 100m. They didn't look like they were running anywhere.

Not as fast as him that's for sure.

He is just a freak like Phelps neither of them would have dominated like they have done if they were only 5ft tall. I'm a similar size to them and the rest of my family are small... I should have taken up an Olympic sport.

I'd hate to have a sibling who dominates at something on the world stage, whereas I'm just a nobody.

Of course, I'd be supporting them wherever they go, but ultimately I'd just feel like a failure.
