The world’s fastest man still has some hidden tricks up his sleeve as he showed during his 32nd birthday celebrations on Wednesday.
Usain Bolt is making the most of his time on the Central Coast of New South Wales and was one of the first patrons served at a new restaurant in the region to celebrate his latest birthday.
The Tame Fox, at Erina, 80km north of Sydney, played host to Bolt and his teammates from the Central Coast Mariners and were kind enough to provide a birthday cake.

For a man used to competing in front of tens of millions of people in the Olympics he did seem somewhat shy with the singing of Happy Birthday.
However, always the entertainer, Bolt decided to blow out his candles in a unique way.
