Fifteen-year-old Christopher Taylor breaks Usain Bolt's Jamaican youth 400m record at the World Youth Championships in Colombia.

Christopher Taylor has broken Usain Bolt's long-standing 400m national youth record at the World Youth Championships.

In his semi-final race in Colombia, the 15-year-old recorded a time of 45.30s, beating Bolt's time by five hundredths of a second.
