(From left) Xie Zhenye, Su Bingtian, Zhang Peimeng and Mo Youxue of China's men's 4x100m relay team celebrate after winning the runner-up of the men's 4x100m relay final during the Beijing 2015 IAAF World Championships at the National Stadium, also known as the Bird's Nest, in Beijing, China, 29 August 2015. The Chinese men's relay team worked miracle on Saturday (29 August 2015) when they captured a historic 4x100m relay silver medal. The team became the very superstars of the Bird's Nest Stadium, stealing much of the thunder of Jamaica which defended the title in 37.36 seconds. When the Chinese Fantastic 4 were celebrating their unprecedented bronze medal, they found out they were promoted to second place as the United States was disqualified for exchanging the baton out of zone. Canada was lifted to third place in 38.13. Consisting of two of the fastest men in Asia - Su Bingtian and Zhang Peimeng, the host team started on the ninth lane as Mo Youxue and Xie Zhenye kept pace with the other teams while birthday boy Su improved their position to fourth in the third leg. Zhang edged past Canada's J. Warner in the final meters to ensure a podium finish.
