The world’s fastest man showed he has a lighter side by pulling off some retro dance moves behind a live report from Colin Jackson.

Completely distracting viewers from Jackson, who was himself an Olympic silver medalist and three times world champion 110m hurdler, Bolt derailed the report briefly.

The videobomb came after Bolt won a tight 100-meter-dash, running it in 9.87 seconds.

Bolt has been a long time ambassador for Virgin Media in the UK with a number of cooky ads showing the sprinter does not take himself too seriously.
