Watch: Japan’s 105-year-old sprinter breaks own world record

Hidekichi Miyazaki, a 105-year-old Japanese man, broke his own record as the world's oldest competitive sprinter but says he is unhappy with his time.
Miyazaki raised many eyebrows as he set a fresh 100 metres world record in the over-105 age category by clocking 42.22 seconds in Kyoto, one day after reaching the milestone age. Reflecting on his performance, he insisted that he can still go faster than the actual result, adding that his training had been going splendidly and, therefore, he had set himself a target of 35 seconds. Dubbed as the 'Golden Bolt' for imitating sprint king Usain Bolt's famed lightning bolt pose, Miyazaki said that he would love to compete against the Jamaican.
