00:00Morenci, did you see this guy Quincy Hall and what he did in the 400 meter gold medal

00:09race, the final?

00:12Did you see what that guy pulled off?

00:16Absolutely unbelievable, Scott.

00:18And I had one, I had bet on the Matthew Hudson Smith, the dude from Britain who Matthew Hudson

00:28was a guy that did a lot of personal problems, was homeless, attempted suicide before.

00:34He was the guy that was about to win and Quincy Hall, the American, I don't know where he

00:40found this from, Scott.

00:41I know you watched the video on your phone.

00:44Get a chance to watch it on a large screen after when you see the highlights, they're

00:47going to replay it a million times.

00:50Dude, every sort of muscle, facial, you know what I mean?

00:55It's like coming back like every, and another sort of like the a hundred meters, he just

01:00stuck his chest up and for people to wonder too, I never really thought about Scott before,

01:05but it's like, all right, is it your foot?

01:08Like what?

01:09You know, I would have always just assumed my foot cross first, right?

01:12It's not, it's your chest.

01:15It's not even your head.

01:17So it's not like a horse where, you know, you stick your head out or anything like that.

01:21No, cause I know, you know, we never really see photo finishes like this before, right?

01:25Like sticking his face out.

01:27Yeah.

01:28Yeah.

01:29Like, you know what I mean?

01:30You stick your head out at the end.

01:31What do you do?

01:32Right?

01:33So, cause you see the photo finish in a hundred meters, one of the dudes you can see his orange

01:38shoe is ahead of everyone.

01:39I'm like, man, I don't know.

01:40Like if you're running and your foot is first, wouldn't that be first?

01:44But evidently it's your chest.

01:46So you'll notice what, so like, you'll notice the British guy with the whole race.

01:50They both were like puffing their chest out at the end.

01:53It was like as much as they could to stick their chest out to get to the line first.

01:59And it was like the whole guy, look at the video after in slow motion.

02:03Like he contorted, like stuck his chest out and like, just sort of like thrust through

02:07the finish line, super close race really, really helps the U S though.

02:12We were concerned about getting our over 39 and a half gold medals for the U S they're

02:16starting to rack them up, Scott, especially on the track right now.

02:20We're not, we can't let up yet, but we're starting to get there and I think we're going

02:24to win this bet.
