Usain Bolt plays coaching to young sprinter in a commercial published Tuesday Feb 9, 2016.

As children have proportionately bigger heads, feet, hands and knees compared to adults, fat suit technology was used to allow an adult athlete to be filmed in the sporting sequences. This allowed seamless filming while maintaining the correct […]
