In case you missed the big news, Usain Bolt was run over by a cameraman on a segway on Thursday at the IAAF World Championships in Beijing.

He also won the 200m race, which is why he was back today to be presented with his gold medal, marking the fact that he had completed a fantastic double win, having claimed the 100m title earlier in the week.

The two came face to face again, and judging by the images captured of them at the medal ceremony, all is forgiven and there are no hard feelings from either party.

Speaking to The Guardian, Tao Song said "The important thing is that he is OK. I’m fine and ready to get back to work", and he also presented Bolt with a bracelet as a small token of apology.
