A Bolt of Lightning....Is this real or fake?


 Two bolts shared the spotlight during Sunday's 100-meter final at the IAAF Word Championships in Moscow.
The first was sprinter Usain Bolt, who recaptured his world title in 9.77 seconds, edging out American Justni Gatlin abnd Jamaican Nesta Carter for second and third, respectively, in steady rain.
The second was a lightning bolt in the sky overheard, captured perfectly by Agent France-Presse photographer Olivier Morin in a photo of Bolt nearing the finish line.
The striking, incredible photo made the rounds on social media after the race, with many feeling it was so improbable and incredible that it had to be fake. But it's not.
"I did not try to get the lightning in the pix," a surprised Morin told Yahoo! News of the viral photo. "Getting Usain Bolt in the frame is difficult enough."
No kidding. The perfectly-named Jamaican sprinter is lightning-fast, a fact that this photo -- destined to become the iconic Bolt photo -- demonstrates clearly.
