Cheetah Sets New world Record
Ok we've seen a lot of world records broken these days at the Olympics, but the one that Sarah, an 11 year old cheetah at the Cincinnati Zoo broke left humans and most animals in the dust.
While being photographed for a National Geographic magazine article that will include never before seen high speed photos of a cheetah in high speed action, Sarah covered 100 meters in 6.13 seconds, and, in the process, earned the title of world's fastest land mammal.
How fast is that? Well watch and see for yourself.
