VIDEOBruce Jenner thinks Usain Bolt got carried away when the Jamaican runner declared himself “the greatest athlete to live” following his impressive back-to-back 100-meter and 200-meter victories in a second straight Olympics.

Before he was Official Dad to the Kardashians, of course, Jenner was the 1976 Olympic gold medalist in the decathlon, making him the unofficial greatest athlete in the world at the time.
When a TMZ cameraman asked Jenner about Bolt’s statement, the reality TV star didn’t mince words.
“He’s the best sprinter,” said Jenner, before adding, “He can’t pole vault. He can’t throw anything. That’s an athlete.”
Asked whether Bolt can put himself in the same category as decathletes, Jenner responded, “No, he couldn’t do it. He would be terrible.”
We’re crossing our fingers for a Jenner-Bolt track and field showdown at the 2016 Olympics in Rio.
