Usain Bolt need not worry. The Segway cameraman who took him down at the last world championships joked that he will not be at this year’s worlds, the final meet of Bolt’s career starting this week.

Song Tao, of China’s CCTV, recorded a video message to Bolt that was played at the Jamaican’s press conference on Tuesday in London.

“Good luck at your final,” Song said, according to subtitles. “I promise that I won’t be there. Or maybe I will!”

“You inspired me to become more focused in my work,” Song added, according to The Associated Press.
