...state. In 2005, Ashley Burns, a 14-year-old from Medford, Mass., died after being thrown into the air and landing on her stomach, causing her spleen to rupture. Another Massachusetts athlete, 20-year-old Lauren Chang, died in April, after she was accidentally kicked in the chest during a cheerleading competition...
...slow motion? That's when I got that wow feeling. I watched the race, but I couldn't see what he did. It just looked like he won by a lot. Then they showed the replay, and I saw him look around a couple of times and hit his chest. I started thinking, those are hundredths of a second he could have lost. I was in awe.

...those Chicken McNuggets he's so fond of. Instead, near the finish line of the men's 100m dash Saturday night, Usain Bolt - has any sprinter ever had a more appropriate name? - started to celebrate. Bolt spread out his arms and glanced at the crowd. He slapped his chest a few times. And he did it with his shoes untied: his left laces were flopping around at the finish...

Four years ago, the company had developed a suit called the Aqua Shift, using a technology borrowed from airplanes and Formula One car racing, but never before used on a swimsuit. It used a system of turbulators, or tripwires, that wrap around the chest and back and disrupt, or trip, the flow of water down the body. This was significant because in previous attempts to reduce drag, the water would run quickly down the body and then form an eddy that would literally pull the swimmer backwards. So, in effect, the turbulators reduced total drag...
