Sprinting legend Usain Bolt was once labelled as a 'horrible neighbour' during a brutal online rant, which was swiftly deleted.
Bolt, 38, will forever be regarded as one of the best sprinters of all time and is one of the most well-known athletes in the world.
During what was an illustrious career, Bolt won eight Olympic gold medals and 11 World Championship gold medals among other accolades.

Bolt is also the current world record holder in the 100m and the 200m.
Back in 2015, Bolt was heavily criticised by his neighbour, the wife of rapper Sean Paul, Jodi Stewart-Henriques.
As reported by The Standard, she wrote on social media: "Between the bikes, loud, horrid music, parties and screams, I honestly wish he would go back to where he came from.

"So unfair and disrespectful. He’s a horrible neighbour. I cannot wait to move."
However, it was then claimed that the post was deleted, and Stewart-Henriques issued an apology to the Jamaican.
The TV and Radio personality wrote: "After some much needed introspection I would like to publicly apologize [sic] for the comments made about Usain Bolt.
"Not only were they unwarranted but also highly inappropriate and for this I am truly sorry."

She continued: "My intention was never to degrade or disrespect anyone but without realising, I did. I apologise to the persons I hurt, including friends, family, my husband, and the Jamaican people at large but especially Usain Bolt.
"Although I am and have been frustrated by the disturbances, I should have dealt with this in a private and more civil manner. My intentions are to speak with Usain, discuss this regrettable incident and personally apologise."
Bolt's world records have stood for a long time and the man himself once named Oblique Seville as someone who could finally break them.

Speaking on The Fix Podcast, Bolt admitted: "Anything is possible. Track and field is evolving fast with the new spikes, everything changes. It’ll take some work but records are records
“Oblique can do it, If he can stay fit through the season and get it right, he can do it because I’m sure there’s something there, the ability to do it."
“Some of the time Oblique can be fragile. It’s a matter of the work situation or whatever, but if he’s doing enough work, he can do it.
"It’s a matter of time because he’s not missed the finals yet, so it’s just to get over the hump.”
