NEW WORLD RECORD!! The Fastest 400 Meters Ever Run! || Christopher Morales Williams - 2024 SEC Final 

That’s actually insane

Whoa 😮 🔥

Jason Tatum reference

He's obviously cheating. Michael Norman was even trying and this youngsters form is way worse. Michael Norman back then wouldn't lose any race and that's not even the beginning of glazing

And just a sophomore.

Very impressive results, phenomenal shape, and I wish Christopher all the best. It's been a huge month & weekend for Canadians. In Windsor, a former athlete I coached for several years, Max Davies, who recently just turned 20 in December of 2023, just broke 2 OUA Indoor Records, winning the Men's 1000m in 2:20.22 on Friday and Saturday winning the Men's 1500m in 3:44.24. He also anchored the Guelph Gryphons 4x800m Relay to OUA Gold. The 1500m Record had stood since 1978.The 1000m should also be New Canadian U21&22 National Indoor Records, and Max is on the doorsteps of Canadian Legend Doug Consiglio' U23 1000m Indoor Record. A couple weeks ago Max also broke the 4minute Mile Indoors. Both your nephew Christopher & Max have a bright future representing Canada. I know they both have had the opportunity to do so already. The sky really is the limit for these 2 young men. Hope to see them both qualify for the Olympic Games and continue to make us proud. God Bless

​@paolothevin Marvellous . Wish him the best in the upcoming races for us Canadian 😊😊😊😊😊

Yeah but what drugs is he taking dude

@@Peter-yj8fj and what if we should ask you the same question like this...What drug are you taking to be able to think and even write those 8 grudgeful words? Oh come on, I must also remind you that you are the best, so just start believing in yourself and you too will start reaping your successes.

Great stuff mate 👍

He's Canadian? That's my boy right there! Let's go Canada

Canada Ina The Building

@@Bigern2998he’s half Latino right Morales Williams doesn’t sound Canadian.

@@trinidadrodriquez876 dude, everyone lives everywhere now. I am a Norwegian Canadian haha👍 I claim Morales as Canadian

If that record is 44.44 then the title of this video is a lie.

Very exciting. If this guy properly steps up for the outdoor 400m, that will give Canada, on the men’s side anyway, someone legitimately in the mix for everything from 100m up through 10000m. DeGrasse/Brown, Morales-Williams, Arop, Philibert-Thibodeau, Mo Ahmad.

Not ironically but coincidentally

Tony Sharpe is the man behind the scenes bringing up these stars

Yes he had a few 45.'s, and was slightly ahead of Boling for the season.

That's the opposite of ironic

Hah you’re right! He does run like Michael Cherry with that really large arm swing

Honestly. I've never seen someone carry so much momentum like that. It's like he was fresh.

@@jhoncena1111 I know what you're saying. 400m don't get done like that.

@@thee-sportspantheon330you couldn’t have said it better I’ve never seen anything like that before

​@@thee-sportspantheon330yeah anyone else with that form would have got dropped lol. This guy had almost zero visible deceleration after taking out the first lap in 21 flat.

@@jhoncena1111 He was decelerating. Just less than the other guys. It’s how it works. I had him at around 32.2 at 300m, which is an 11.1 for the 3rd hundred. So that gives 12.3-12.4 for the last 100m. He was strong though. I would have loved to see what he could do for a 600 on that day.

I thought he was tightening way up. Super impressive grit.

I thought the same thing. There is nothing effortless about running a 400 m at this speed. He was pushing hard and he killed it.

Right? this is like the first time I've ever disagreed with his assessment out of his 2 or 3 million videos lol

I agree. He was not tight. Swaying and muscling. This was pure effort which says a lot too. If he can tighten it up it could be game over

I noticed early on his technique was not well "contained"... this was brute force dominance... amazing to see

He ran that on heart and strength. He put perfect efficiency to the side so it wouldn't get in the way.

​@@dennisrobinson8008 yeah get rid of efficiency lol. It's holding you back 😂

We can't complain though a 44.49, best ever. Sure there is room for gains from being more controlled. @@bignashi

If you don’t know him, look up Quincy Wilson. He broke 50” in the 400 as an 8th grader and ran 45 seconds last year as a freshman, and his form is insanely goofy. This comment reminded me of him, if he figures out his arm swing he’ll be unstoppable

Will youtube him.@@jonahmays

Yea that reaction was cool and very authentic

Nice to see an Athlete run through the tape instead of celebrating before finishing. Good for him !

@@SuperElott There is something to be said about a relative newcomer running in a fashion that suggests it's new to him as well. Does he run the same way if he draws an inner lane, and has no requirement to 'run scared?"

Fr 😂

Right? I was expecting an unnaturally loud "What the FUCK?!"

Did you watch his breathing in the last 50m?, he was controlling it for power...

I went to college on a track scholarship to run the 400 and I have to agree with you for real!!!!! I know the pain you feel in those last meters and realize his endurance and conditioning is out of this world!!!! I wonder if he can run the 800 too!!!???🤔

His ability to shift gears reminded me of Will Sumner, so yes he can run the 800 metres and he has at such a young age accepted the pain that comes with the long sprint. His ability to maintain his momentum without slowing down bodes well for his future and 43 seconds Outdoors is in sight

Why does he use his mom's last name first?

Christopher Morales-Williams. You’re not very smart. Are you 😒

smart enough for you to retort​@@Brave-828

you've got that reversed

York Region 😉

No one knows York region.

That was a DAWG like run. That sprint in the last 50 was completely bananas like a Banzai pilot.

Hopefully he isn't run into the ground this season. I wonder how this factors in for quallifying for Paris (he's from Canada and I don't think anyone could come close to him).

⁠@@krbcan1He’s the defending Canadian champion from last summer. Won in 45.48, second place was just under 46 last year. I think he should be able to win nationals/qualifying meet. And I would imagine this performance would qualify as an Olympic standard for Team Canada.

Click bait

Maybe in 2028 in LA. Collegiate runners are usually running out of steam by the time they reach major championships. And Steven Gardiner is very hard to beat when healthy.

Easy with the expectations. This is a monster breakthrough, but 19 and is only just getting a taste of competing at this kind of stage. Olympics are an intimidatingly huge stage and there is some legitimately solid competition in the 400m on the world stage. I would not be surprised to see him in the Paris final or even on the podium. But gold is maybe a little optimistic.

Bolt 200m record is 19:19 it will be a long time before that record will be broken.

@@cyrilanderson yeah, Bolt's record is very hard to beat.
