Usain Bolt is one of the Olympic champions who is an inspiration for all aspiring Olympic athletes. He has made his place in the game and is an awesome sprinter. In an interview, Bolt revealed his passion for video games. He believes that if it weren’t for Mario Kart, he would not be as good a sprinter as he is now. Video games such as Mario Kart have helped him a lot in his journey from being a regular sprinter to becoming an Olympic champion.

Usain bolt, a man who can run 100m in just 9.58 seconds, gave credit for his performance to a video game named Mario Kart when he was giving an interview for a firm who are trying to inculcate hologram technology in modern video games. Virgin Media is trying to custom hologram technology for all the video games lovers who could play the game with their opponent from the other end of the world while sitting in the same room. In the interview, Bolt accepted that playing video games has played a great role in helping him to achieve everything that he has now.

Usain bolt has always enjoyed playing video games. He even agreed that if he was born in the modern world, he would certainly go for esports. He would’ve enhanced his gaming skills to become an esports champion instead of a sprinter champion. Playing esports is better for the brain and is fun as well. If he would’ve given a choice, he would, without any doubt, choose to wake up after sunrise and practice playing games with other players in his basement than wake up before sunrise and go for a run and extensive workout alone.

Bolt even agreed that he have missed his workout sessions to complete the video game that he playing. Playing games has increased his hunger to achieve the first position every time. No matter whether he is playing with a controller in his hand or he is running on a track, he always wants to win at any cost. Playing video games and running on a track is more or less the same for Bolt. His agenda remains the same both of the time- “you play to win.”

At the end of the interview, Bolt demonstrated the technology that Virgin Media has come up with. Hologram technology is indeed a fun and attractive technology. It will change the whole mode and experience of playing games. It is hard to believe that someone who is engrossed in an outdoor activity such as a sprinter is a fan of video games as well. Bolt now is a huge fan of using hologram technology in video games. He was excited as now it is going to be a possibility that he could play video games with his fans while sitting in the same room with them.

Usain bolt is not sure whether the technology would be a success or a failure but he is surely excited about it. It is great to know that a busy person who needs to do extensive workouts every day to enhance his on-field performance is always ready to create space in his schedule for video games. It is extremely hard to believe that someone who is as good as Usain Bolt will play video games with strangers in his free time. He is an inspiration not only for aspiring Olympians but also for video games lovers. He indeed is a gem.
