Usain Bolt was born on August 21,1986.His birth number is 3(2+1=3).So,the 12th(1+2=3) IAAF World championships in Athletics competition is quite significant for him
Bolt broke Michael Johnson’s 200m record set before 12(1+2=3) years-that is in 1996.- in 2008
12 years before Michael Johnson’s record,Carl Lewis had created the record of claiming the sprint double.Bolt emulated this. in 2008.
Most surprisingly,the number of jersey worn by Bolt was related to number.The number was 2163. (2+1+6+3=12,1+2=3)
