His speed for 100 metres will be just 9.55 seconds and thatis .03 seconds faster than Bolt's world record. However, the records cannot becompared directly as Bolt ran on a flat track while Gowda ran alongside a pairof buffalo and there was water around.

Though Gowda attributed the credit of his success to his buffaloes, some netizens suggested that he should train for the Olympics.
