Usain Bolt may have just set a new record―of winning a race in space. Or maybe not. Either way, he sure seemed like he had fun racing on a zero-gravity flight over France.

Bolt posted on social media a video of him racing in zero gravity with two others with the eight-time Olympic gold medallist floating about to take the lead and finishing the “race” way ahead of his competitors.

“Changing the game @ghmumm Celebrating life by running and drinking champagne in Zero Gravity #DareWinCelebrate #NextVictory ,” the Olympian captioned the post.

Bolt said he felt like a “kid in a candy store” as he floated around in near-weightless conditions for nearly four minutes.

Bolt participated in the zero-gravity race aboard an Airbus A310 plane as part of a promotional event for champagne manufacturer Mumm.
