I am not a runner myself... what do u guys think? do u think he did it on purpose? i mean.. if he did, it will be such an disgrace for are world champ.
Is hard for me to believe such an unsportman act can appear at that level.

I saw the first jump where his hand grabbed on to LiU xiang's wrist then on the second jump it was accidental. But i guess these things happen. So not really done purposely.

I think he did not do this on purpose, however, it did hinder the chinese athlete...
Although Liu Xiang would probably have finished in first, they can't give the gold to a guy who crossed the line after that american did because they can't prove Xiang would actually have won...
I think the ruling was correct! Also a lot of respect for Xiang for the way he handles this with the media as a true sportman!
