Congrats Feliks! Sub 50 is incredible.

Though, I can see why some people were complaining about the lighting and it being a bit crowded.

I have tried to get in a bit closer with this edit. Obviously I could only work with the footage available which is why it almost goes off screen at one point.
I don't understand why the official time isn't 48.43s. Do they really round down?

Basically the result is wrong lol.

Also anyone know if Feliks has uploaded his table cam video yet?

The table cam footage has is just hand and no cube by the looks of it.

Also truncating is still accurate, it is not rounded.

No it's not. The only reason I assume they do it is because not all timings are measured to 3 decimal places. So if a 2 decimal place timer was used it wouldn't show a higher number until the time went over 48.4299999999. Therefore if the 3 dec places was rounded to 2 in the normal way the 3 dec place people would be at a disadvantage to the 2 dec place people.

2-gen timers don't become 48.43 at 48.4250000…., they become 48.43 immediately after 48.4299999….
And because we record our records to two decimal places, it is standard practice to just ignore what ever the third digit is.
