London: After setting records at London 2012, self-claimed ‘living legend’ Usain Bolt has set a new record at Twitter with reaching a record peak of 80,000 Tweets per minute.
Usain Bolt, the fastest man on the planet, has become a ‘legend’ after clinching gold in the 200m in London 2012, saying ‘I’m now a legend. I am the greatest athlete to live’.
