The fastest man on the planet Usain Bolt has landed at Heathrow Airport, where he is standing stock still.
But the Jamacian sprint king is not stuck in a queue.
Madame Tussauds have moved a life-size waxwork of the Olympic champion into Terminal 5.
Striking the iconic pose Bolt adopts when he wins races, the figure shall welcome travellers to London during July.
The model certainly drew plenty of glances and was a hit with school children, today.
Youngsters will receive a lesson in road safety from the Jamacian sprint team – some of whom could become stars of the 2012 Games.
