And I'm thinking you weren't burdened with an overabundance of schooling.

Isn't any treadmill going 25mph a recipe for disaster ?

???
It's nice here with a view of the trees
Eating with a spoon?
They don't give you knives?

I would not doubt his coaches gave him a talking to after watching that video.

That's a lawsuit waiting to happen .

It is a crazy that they would make it that fast. Only Usain Bolt and about 100 other sprinters on the planet can run that fast (Usain has been clocked at 27.5 or so). I guess there may be ways of bypassing the safety mechanisms on these things?

I know, right?

After seeing this yesterday I did a quick google, because I was all ready to shout "Fake!".  There are, indeed 25MPH+ treadmills, apparently to boost some sort of muscle memory or a certain type of fiber which is ideal for sprinting.

I didn't even think those kinds of speeds were possible for humans, but then I read this from Wiki:
QuoteThe fastest human footspeed on record is 44.72 km/h (27.79 mph), seen during a 100 metres sprint (average speed between the 60th and the 80th meter) by Usain Bolt.[4]

Insane.
