    Miles Doing The Pose

    By MattTurner  |  Posted August 8, 2012  |  London
     

    CNN PRODUCER NOTE     "Miles has been a huge Bolt fan since the last Olympics when he won the 100m in such emphatic style," says MattTurner. "He loves doing the pose when he's done something good, I think he sees it as a symbol of triumph and achievement." Miles wasn't the only iReporter to pose with Bolt's figure!
    - rachel8, CNN iReport producer

    This is a picture of my nine year old son Miles Turner with the wax work of the great Usain Bolt. Taken at Madame Tussauds in London on the day the Olympic Games started, we were on holiday, visiting the capital, catching the atmosphere and anticipation as the Games grew closer. At Madame Tussauds there is a gallery of famous sports people, Miles made a beeline for the one of Usain Bolt and immediately stood next to his wax work immitating Usain's famous pose. It was a fabulous visit, made even more exciting as the opening ceremony was so close.
