Pic of the day

The fastest man on Earth wasn’t quick enough to get away from Paddy Barnes.

As more details of Paddy Barnes having the craic last night emerge, it is quickly becoming obvious that this could be the Olympics of Barnes.

The cheeky Belfast man grabbed two of the biggest superstars of the games, Asafa Powell and Novak Djokovic, away from the parade of athletes to take a snap with them, but surely his coup de grace was hilariousily photobombing a pic with a stoney-faced Usain Bolt.

The fastest man on earth wasn’t quick enough to escape Paddy Barne's lens, as Barnes pulled off a Grade-A internet photobomb faster than the superstar sprinter could say "Paddy, you're Jamaican me crazy...."

If Paddy can bring the quickness and sharpness he showed at the Opening Ceremony last night to the ring, we’d definitely punt on him bettering the light-flyweight bronze in boxing the 25 year-old won as a nipper in Beijing four years ago.
