Sprint: The World's Fastest Humans

Netflix is too focused on talking to US audiences, often at the expense of viewers around the rest of the world. But what is really frustrating here is that the US characters are also awful -- they are focussed as much on putting the other competitors off as they are on being their absolute best. They're happy winning by messing with a competitor's head rather than winning fair and square. It's an ugly form of bad sportsmanship from the empire with the most resources. This series does not have the warmth needed to care about the struggle and grit of the egomaniacs they've chosen to focus on. Disappointing.

Season 1..an amazing insight to athletics throughout the world of athletics. Lets you into the mindset of the athletes competing from multiple countries which was fantastic to see. A very well rounded watch and intelligently put together with a fair amount of air time to each country and athlete 8.5👍..but season two simple concentrate on/mostly the US team with very little time to other nations it more like the Noah lyles show,and as great as US team proved to be.there was more,i wanted to find out from others nations with massively impressive proformance and person stories from counties smaller like Saint Kitts and Botswana athletes with Inspiring stories to discover..please the underdog story is do much more impressive than the louder individuals(we all know who they are)

Loved every episode of this.

Having lived in Jamaica, the number one sport is track and field. A great show that represents the culture of the national sport and an amazing insight into the athletes mindsets, training and coaching.

Kingston represent.. Would love to have captured more on the culture in JA.

The best parts are the down time when you see what the athletes are going through with loss and picking themselves up.

Netflix could have done a better job on some of the real rivals rather than just focus on certain individuals. Shelly should have more face time. The racism that exists in the sport but super addictive viewing and roll on S2...

This was everything in terms of sprinting. Get Rhasidat Adeleke for season 2... now..

Season 1 was exciting but Season 2 is down right lazy and not a true reflection of what we witnessed in Athletics in 2023/24. Too much attntion is given to the same athletes even when they fail the spotlight never goes to the deserving athletes like Tebogo.

We get that Africa is some place over there for the producers and probably not of any interest or focus for the audience they are chasing and that's okay but don't put Tebogo on the poster of the entire season and barely have him there n any of the episodes.

I was underwhelmed by season 2, I've seen better YouTube documentaries on athletics for 2024 with zero budget and comprehensively cover and profile all events and athletes fairly.

This was such a compelling watch! I have seen a number of sports documentaries but this was one of my favorites. I started my first episode thinking I would watch a few minutes and ended up finishing the entire series in a single day.

This series does a good job of taking you behind the scenes and giving you a glimpse into the lives and training of the world's best sprinters. I thoroughly enjoyed getting to know the various male and female athletes. At first some in particular do not seem very likeable, but by the end of the series I found myself cheering for sprinters I initially disliked.

I hope there are more seasons to come.
