What would Usain Bolt run in the 40-Yard Dash?

Bolt's run was electronically-timed, so there's no funny business here. We can only imagine how fast a time he'd clock in proper attire. The fact there was only about 10 yards of space for him to run beyond the finish line probably didn't help matters, either.
