  2. Don't quit until it's over is a good life lesson, it's not often that you can actually see in a video.

  3. It was rigged. The fart holding the tape is standing on the track, blocking other lanes. And watch how he turns his body thereb tty atretching the tape until it hreaks. Notice how the tape breaks at the tar left.

    My dad burnished into us the lesson of not quitting until the very end.

    1. He rotated slightly to give the winner a little more elbow room. Tape didn't break, the woman on the left lets it go. It's a spring loaded reel, so it winds up when released.
      Odd, both those girls are wearing the same mismatched color shoes, different than the other girls passing behind the guy. Different race, or staggered finish lines?

  4. arguably, they're the only ones that count.

  5. Did these two lap the others which is why the tape wasn't stretched into their lanes? I can see the reason she is #1.

  7. The finish line was about a 1/2 a step prior to the tape. It looks like the #1 runner still won, but it had to be by a 10th of second.
