Like the fastest human on Earth, the second fastest is the Jamaican. Yohan Blake was born in 1989 in a small town in Saint James Parish, Western Jamaica. Like Bolt, Blake originally wanted to be a professional cricketer, but changed focus after his school's principal urged him to try sprinting after realizing how fast Blake was. When Usain Bolt was asked to name someone who could seriously challenge him, his answer was Yohan Blake. Blake certainly came close when he ran the 100 meters in 9.69 seconds at an athletics event in Lausanne, Switzerland.
