AS I was sitting down for an exclusive interview with Usain Bolt, the first thing that the World’s Fastest Man – all two metres of him hunched on the chair – said to me was: “Come closer, closer.”
Bolt – full name Usain St Leo Bolt – has just stepped off the stage at the Global Transformation Forum 2017, where he electrified an audience of some 3,000 with an inspiring tale of how a cricket-loving Jamaican boy became a sprinter who blazed across the finishing line at a World Record of 9.58s for the 100m in Berlin in 2009.
