Try viewing about 2 strides after they have passed the 1/8th pole. I.e. they are less than 220 yards from the finish. This according to decarlo on the other site who claims he can see them clip on the overhead.

Eh, I think all anybody's seeing is the bobble but that's not the same as clipping heels. The jock absolutely would've called foul. And how come the only place I've heard about it is online? All they talked about on tv (NBC and ESPN) was that he came in just a bit as he was going by. No attempts to find a clipping that happened. They love that blimp of theirs. Don't think they wouldn't have have jumped on a chance to use it.

No, I agree w/ you but I was just pointing out where to look in the video because 31lengths wasnt sure at what pt. in the overhead the incident occurred.
