You never know. You know what I mean? For me, the possibility... now even our babies actually came out with new slides that helps you to actually run faster. So you never know what's next... Maybe one of my sons has [already been born].
The current world record is 9.58 (held by Bolt). A sub-9 second time is currently considered theoretically near-impossible by many sports scientists.

PFT CommenterOlympic runners are breaking world records because there are no fans to suck the oxygen out of the stadium
If there's no crowd at all, does that mean that there's more oxygen for the people to breathe on the track? ... They're sucking all the oxygen out normally, but when there's no fans there, it's a richer environment for especially distance runners to be able to breathe more efficiently.
The presence of fans in an open-air stadium does not significantly deplete oxygen levels for athletes. Records were likely due to new shoe technology and track surfaces.
