Outperform's video: Test Your Reaction Time vs Noah Lyles

Test your 100m reaction speed vs the current world champion. 1. Turn up the sound 2. Listen for the starting gun. 3. Press spacebar or k 4. Tap to play again (3 times each play). If you think this competition is unfair, well, it is. Noah Lyles is the reigning World Champion and has trained himself to react almost instantaneously, firing a long chain of physiological responses throughout his body. You, on the other hand, are sending that signal to your fingertip. But isn’t it fun to try to beat the reigning “world’s fastest” at (a small part of) his own game? And guessing when the gun will fire won’t help. If you react faster than 0.100 of a second, you’re out. In elite sprinting, there are no second chances and races are won or lost by hundredths, even thousandths of a second. So how fast are you? *Apologies to Zaharnel Hughes, he's actually in lane 5 next to Noah, the arrow is pointing to Letsile Tebogo in lane 3 who had a .129 RT
