You asked for it and we got it. A video of Derry’s Jason Smyth destroying the field in Men’s 100m T13 Paralympics final last night.
Since Jason Smyth, the double Paralympics gold medallist from 2008, won last night setting a new World Record of 10.46 in the process, we’ve been inundated with people looking for footage of the race last.
Well we’re happy to bring it to you now in the video above and as you can see Smyth puts a fair bit of daylight between himself and the rest of the field from the very start.
If you want to find out more about Ireland’s Usain Bolt of the Paralympics, you can check out this in-depth interview we did with him prior to the games where he talks about his disability, love of sprinting and Mormon faith here.
He’s a class act and kicked ass in a major way yesterday.
