At the 1992 Olympics in Barcelona, American Kevin Young set a world record that has yet to be beaten. That may soon change.
A warm-up routine by an Australian hurdler has racked up nearly 500 000 views in the past two days on YouTube. Michelle Jenneke was filmed just before her race during the IAAF World Junior Championship last weekend in Barcelona.
The video shows her smiling, hopping up and down, wiggling her hips, and waving to the crowd. Thanks to some super corny music that was added to the footage, along with slowing down some of her movements, we now have a video titled: The Hottest Hurdler Ever”.
But did her enthusiastic preparation help? Hell yes! Check her out – soaring past her competitors, and flying ahead to win first place!
