Upon their First Meeting, Glennon Doyle and Abby Wambach have Instant Recognition of an Emotional Connection
I was watching a television show that featured author Glennon Doyle and soccer star Abby Wambach, who is also a best-selling author. Glennon and Abby are a lesbian couple, though Glennon was previously married to a man, with whom she had children.
In the interview, the couple was asked how they met. Glennon related that she was at a book publicity event at the Palmer House in Chicago. She was in a small backstage room seated at a table with other authors waiting to for the program to begin.
Abby, who was also participating in the event, opened the door to the room. Glennon stared at Abby and was struck by her exotic appearance. Glennon related that she unconsciously stood up and stretched her arms towards Abby, as if her body moved on its own in recognition of Abby.
At the same Glennon heard within herself: “There She Is.” It seemed to Glennon that she had been waiting for Abby all her life.
Abby and Glennon walked together to the stage and when doing so, Glennon touched Abby’s arm. Abby related that Glennon’s touch felt like a lightning bolt of recognition. They went on to become a married lesbian couple.
Walter Recognizes a Past Life Connection and Pursues Identification in a Session with Kevin Ryerson
When I saw this story on TV, I had a lightning bolt of recognition that Glennon and Abby were a couple in past lifetimes, as this would explain their mutual reactions upon meeting.
In a session with trance medium Kevin Ryerson, I explained the situation to Ahtun Re, the spirit guide channeled through Kevin who has demonstrated the ability to make past life matches with a high degree of accuracy. I asked Ahtun Re to identify past lives for Glennon and Abby in which they were a couple.
As is his custom, Ahtun Re said, “One Moment.” A period of silence followed, during which Ahtun Re went into a meditative state to search for this information. After a minute or two, Ahtun Re returned and told me very specifically:
I had never heard of either woman, but upon doing a little research, I found that they did exist, were American authors and a lesbian couple.
I realized that this was a phenomenal set of past life matches. Please keep in mind that I do not inform Kevin before our sessions what my inquiries will be, so he has no chance to do research beforehand. I am always amazed at Ahtun Re’s ability to derive past lives.
Physical Resemblance in Reincarnation Cases: The facial features of Annie Adams Fields and Abby Wahbach are similar, just as there is a similarity in appearance between Sarah Orne Jewett and Glennon Doyle.
When comparing photos of Sarah and Glennon posed at a 45 degree angle to the camera, at almost a profile view, the resemblance is extraordinary.
Abby Wambach is a soccer star, though Annie Adams Fields is not known for her athletic ability. It may be that Annie may have had that inclination, but in the 19th century, women were not encouraged or allowed to play competitive sports.
James Naismith was born on November 6, 1861 on a farm in Ontario, Canada, where he was raised. Orphaned as a child, James lived with his aunt and uncle.
In 1883, at the age of 21, he went to Montreal Canada where he enrolled into McGill University. There, he was a star athlete, winning metals in gymnastics and playing rugby, soccer, lacrosse and Canadian football (center). He was 5 feet 10.5 inches tall and weighed 178 pounds.
Naismith earned a BA in Physical Education and subsequently taught the subject at McGill, soon becoming its first athletic director.
Naismith in Massachusetts and the Creation of Basketball
James then moved to the United States, settling in Springfield, Massachusetts, where he became a physical education teacher at the YMCA International Training School.
In the cold New England winter, his athletes became ill-tempered being confined to limited indoor activities. To quell the unrest, the head of the program ordered Naismith to create a game to occupy the program’s athletes, which would not take up much room, could help athletes keep in shape, was fair for all players and was not too rough, to minimize injury. Naismith was given two weeks to manufacture this game.
To reduce physical contact between the players and thus decrease chance of injury, Naismith envisioned installing a hoop high over the heads of the players. Points were awarded each time a player lobbed a ball into the hoop. He chose to use a soccer ball, which is relatively soft, to also lower the chance of injury. Players could pass or dribble to move the ball around. Naismith summed up the game into 13 rules.
The first game of “Basket Ball” was played in December 1891. Naismith lived to witness his invention become an Olympic game in 1936, as well as the birth of the NCAA Tournament in 1939. He died in November of 1939.
James Naismith Reincarnates into an African American Family
LeBron James was born in Akron, Ohio. His father had a criminal history and was absent from LeBron’s life. His mother, Gloria, struggled to find regular work. To give her son a greater opportunity to succeed in life, she allowed LeBron to live with the family of Frank Walker, a local youth football coach. Walker introduced LeBron to basketball when he was 9 years old.
Planning Lifetimes: James Naismith likely Chose to Reincarnate into an African-American Family and Body
There is strong evidence that souls plan lifetimes and chose the family they will reincarnate into. This is clearly shown in the Twin Study published by Ian Stevenson, MD of the University of Virginia. Stevenson, over a period of 40 years, compiled over 1500 objectively validated childhood past life memory cases.
Out of this population, he identified 31 sets of twins (62 people) who in childhood remembered their past lives with enough detail that their previous personalities could be identified, and their memories validated.
In 100 percent of these cases, the twins had significant past life relationships, including being siblings, friends and even spouses. One set of twins were also twins in their past lives. To learn more, please go to:
For fraternal twins to reincarnate as twins again, the soul of each twin must be able to direct the place and family where conception will occur. For fraternal twins, two separate fertilized eggs (two eggs that have been penetrated by a sperm cell) are inhabited by two different souls. Appearance of the twins will be different as they derived from two different eggs that are inhabited by two different souls. Each soul projects an energy template into the developing fetus, which helps shape physical appearance. For a discussion on reincarnation and physical appearance, please go to:
For identical twins, one fertilized egg splits in two as it reproduces and each separate soul takes control of half the fertilized egg. The twins look the same as they arose from one egg. The soul of one of the twins imprints the fertilized egg with an energy template that helps shape appearance for both twins.
For non-twin cases, the process is the same except that there is only one soul involved that assumes control of one entire egg.

90 percent of the National Basketball Association’s athletes are Black and 70 percent of the athletes in National Football Association are Black. Studies have shown that Africans in the areas of Kenya and Ethiopia genetically have larger lung capacity than the lung capacity of Caucasians or other races. This is why so many marathon winners come from these regions of Africa.
Differences in genetic capabilities of races is likely known in the spirit world. If you invented the game of basketball and wanted to reincarnate to become a star of the sport, which race would you reincarnate into?
Understanding that Souls Can Change Race, Religion and Nationality can Help Create a More Peaceful World
Most wars and conflicts are based on differences in the cultural markers of identity listed above. Change in these cultural markers is demonstrated in many of Ian Stevenson’s reincarnation case studies. In addition, a dramatic case that demonstrates change in religion and nationality involves the reincarnation Anne Frank. To learn more about this case and other similar cases, please go to:
Physical Resemblance in Reincarnation Cases: The facial features of James Naismith and LeBron James are similar. Sizewize, Naismith in his competitive days was 5 feet 10.5 inches tall and weighed 178 pounds. LeBron is 6 foot 8 inches tall and weighs 250 pounds.
In general, facial bone structure stays similar from one lifetime to another, whereas body size can vary depending on genetic and nutritional factors.
Past Life Passions, Talent and Abilities: Naismith was a star college athlete and the creator of basketball, while LeBron James is one of the sport’s brightest lights.
Change in Race and Nationality: Naismith was a Canadian Caucasian. In contrast, LeBron James is an African-American born in the United States.
Supporters of ReincarnationResearch.com informed me of a man in Afghanistan who bears a striking resemblance to the late martial arts star Bruce Lee. This man, Abbas Alizada, became enamored with Bruce Lee movies when he was 15 years old and went on to master the martial arts Bruce Lee popularized. Abbas has gained recognition and popularity in Afghanistan and has became known as the “Bruce Lee of Afghanistan.”
Just because a person resembles a person from the past does not mean that the look alikes represent a reincarnation case. Still, reincarnation research does reveal that facial features often remain similar from one lifetime to another.
I have worked with trance medium Kevin Ryerson on a monthly basis since 2001 and I found that a spirit being he channels named Ahtun Re has the ability to make past life matches with a high degree of accuracy.
In a session with Kevin, Ahtun Re did affirm that Abbas Alizada is the reincarnation of Bruce Lee. A video on Abbas Alizada is provided at the bottom of this page.
Nesrin Meral, one of the individuals who proposed this past life match, has written an article on this reincarnation case. Her article can be accessed through the link provided below:
Physical Resemblance: There is a striking resemblance between Bruce Lee and Abbas Alizada. The image comparison provided is from dawn.com. Click on the image to enlarge it.
Past Life Talent: Abbas Alizada has replicated the martial arts abilities demonstrated by Bruce Lee.
Change of Nationality and Religion: Bruce Lee was born in San Francisco. His parents were of Chinese heritage from Hong Kong and Bruce was subsequently raised in Hong Kong. Bruce was philosophical in nature and was influenced by the spiritual religious doctrines of Buddhism and Taoism.
In contrast, Abbas Alizada was born in Afghanistan and through I do not know his religious views, it is likely that the was born into a Muslim family.
Knowledge that a soul can change nationality and religion from one lifetime to another can help create a more peaceful world, as most wars are based on differences in these cultural markers of identity.
Affinity Case: Abbas Alizada was attracted to his past life persona. I call these types of cases “Affinity Cases.” Other Affinity Cases include:
Lou Gehrig, born in 1903, is one of the most famous baseball players in history, not only for his talent, but due to his death from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a neuromuscular disorder now widely known as Lou Gehrig’s disease. Gehrig died on June 2, 1941 at the age of 37.
Christian Haupt, the son of Michael Haupt and Cathy Byrd, was born in 2009. According to his mother, Cathy, ever since he was 2 years of age, Christian has been obsessed with baseball and at that age insisted on wearing a baseball uniform, including shoes with cleats, everywhere he went.
Christian was not interested in anything else and would not engage in any other play except baseball. Since the time he could walk, Cathy relates that he carried a small wooden baseball bat. None of this made sense as no one in the family was interested in baseball. Michael, Christian’s father, grew up in Germany where baseball is not played, so he was not the source of his son’s enthusiasm.
Past Life Memories of being a Tall Baseball Player and drinking Alcohol
Since he was could talk, Christian insisted that he was a “tall baseball player.” 1
After Cathy placed a video on YouTube of Christian playing baseball, the video went viral and caught the attention of Adam Sandler, who was in the process of filming his baseball themed movie, That’s my Boy, which came out in 2016. Adam liked the video so much he invited Christian to do a cameo role in his movie, which was being filmed in Cape Cod, Massachusetts.
The offer was accepted and Cathy and Christian flew to Boston on their way to cape Cod. When they were settling into their seats on the airliner, Christian made an unusual statement:
“When I was big, I didn’t wear seatbelts, and I drank alcohol,” which caused surrounding passengers to break into laughter. 2
Past Life Emotions: Christian doesn’t like Babe Ruth
Following the movie shoot, Cathy took Christian to a baseball game at Boston’s Fenway park. There, Christian saw a large portrait of Babe Ruth. In response, Christian made another unusual statement:
“I do not like him. He was mean to me!” Cathy questioned him, “Babe Ruth was mean to you?” Christian in an agitated state said, “yes!” Christian continued to be very agitated, to the point that they had to leave the ballpark after only two innings. 3
Christian insists He had a Past Life
Back home in the Los Angeles area, Christian repeated:
“Mommy, I used to be a tall baseball player.” Cathy corrected him by saying, “Yes, you will be a tall baseball player someday.” Christian got upset at the use of future tense and repeated, “No, I was a tall baseball player-tall like daddy!”
“You were a grown-up? Like Daddy? Christian responded with a definitive: “Yes!” 4
Further, Christian told his sister that when he was a tall baseball player, he injured his knee and had to take time off from playing. 5
At this point, reincarnation came into Cathy’s mind as an explanation of her son’s statements, but this idea went against her Christian beliefs. As more evidence of Christian having a past life emerged, Cathy shared that her struggle with her preexisting belief system was so great she felt she was “cheating on Jesus.”
Past Life Memories: Christian knows of Conditions of the Early 1900’s
At another point, Christian said, “Mommy…when I was a kid before, there was a fire in my house,” further explaining, “There was real fire—in the lights!” Kathy realized he was talking about fire used for lighting fueled by natural gas, something he had not learned about by normal means. 6
Continuing, Christian said, “When I was a tall baseball player—tall like daddy—I used to stay in hotels almost every night”
Cathy asked, “Did you fly on airplanes?”
“No, mostly trains,” Christian responded. 7
Further, he said, “We played our games during the day because there were no lights on the field in the olden days.” 8
On another night, one night before going to sleep Christian, said:
“In the old days, we wore metal cleats but no batting helmets.” Cathy found this too was true, as she found batting helmets were not introduced until the mid-1950s. 9
Christian identifies himself as Lou Gehrig in a Past Lifetime
Christian continued to have an intense dislike for Babe Ruth. In an attempt to identify who Christian could have been, if indeed he was describing a past life, Cathy put together photos of baseball teams from Babe Ruth’s era.
Cathy pulled out a black and white photo of the 1927 Yankees team and Christian pointed to Babe Ruth and said, “There is dumb Babe Ruth.” Cathy then asked:
“Do you think there any players on this team who don’t like Babe Ruth?” From the 30 players or so that Christian had to choose from, he selected one player and said “Him!” Kathy then asked “Do you know him?” Christian replied “That’s me.” 10
Cathy pulled out additional pictures of the Yankees and asked if there were any other baseball players who didn’t like Babe Ruth. Each time Christian pointed to the same stocky guy with dimples in every photo. 11
Cathy didn’t know who this player was so she Googled “1927 Yankees dimples” and found that the man in the picture was of Lou Gehrig. Christian was three years old and two months at the time of these identifications. Cathy noted Christian has the same dimples in the very same places as Lou Gehrig did.
Cathy then showed Christian a photo of who she thought was Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig with their arms around each other. Christian studied the photo and said, “That’s not dumb Babe Ruth. That’s the coach.” In looking at the fine print under the photo Kathy realized the Christian was right. The man next to Babe Ruth was Joe McCarthy, the coach. Keep in mind this occurred before Christian knew how to read. 12
Past Life Emotions: Cathy learns why Lou Gehrig disliked Babe Ruth
Cathy gained insight on why Lou Gehrig had a grudge against Babe Ruth. She found learned that Lou Gehrig and Babe Ruth were best of friends until they had a major falling out. Though they both played on the New York Yankees, the two men did not acknowledge each other for seven years, until July 4, 1939, when Lou Gehrig announced his retirement from baseball due to ALS.
Cathy found that Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig had been best of friends since 1925, but vowed never to speak again after an incident that occurred between Lou’s mother, Christina Gehrig, and Babe in 1932. Christina had become a surrogate mother to Babe Ruth who had been raised in an orphanage and did not have a mother of his own. By 1927 Babe Ruth became a fixture at the Garrick home, where Lou still lived with his parents. Babe remarried it 1929 and began leaving his 11-year-old daughter from a previous marriage in the care of Christina Gehrig while he and his new wife, Claire, traveled. When Christina told Babe and Claire she felt they were neglecting his daughter, it was the end of the relationship between Babe Ruth and the Gehrig family. Legend has it that the two men never acknowledged each other from that day forward starting in 1932. 13
Further, Cathy learned that Lou Garrick had a squeaky-clean reputation, while Babe Ruth was known for excessive drinking and womanizing. 14
Christian identifies his mother Cathy as his Past Life Mother, Christina Gehrig
When Cathy showed images of Lou Gehrig’s parents, she was in for a big surprise. After Christian confirmed that the names of Lou’s parents were Henry and Christina he referred to Christina and said, “Mommy, you were her.” 15
Reincarnation research does show that people do plan lifetimes to be reunited with individuals they have known and loved before. In this light, please review: Ian Stevenson’s Twin Study
After Christian claimed that his mother Cathy, was also Lou Gehrig’s mother, Christiana, Cathy decided to explore this possibility. She went for three past life regressions sessions and in her assessment, she tapped into the lifetime of Christina Gehrig in each of the three sessions. Cathy describes how in her regressions, she learned details of the life of Christina Gehrig which she did not learn by normal means. She later verified these details through extensive research.
Cathy strongly relates to Lou Gehrig’s mother and she even told Christian that she believes she is indeed his mother from a past life, Christiana Gehrig.
Synchronistic events and a “Wink” from the Universe
In reincarnation cases, anniversary phenomenon and synchronistic events are often observed, as described in Principles of Reincarnation. These occurrences can be seen as being orchestrated by spirit guides or one’s own soul.
Such events occurred when Cathy and Christian took a trip to the East Coast to visit Lou Gehrig’s home and other related sites in New York. For their return, they had reservations to fly from Albany, New York to Los Angeles via Charlotte, North Carolina. When she learned that the Charlotte flight had been cancelled, on a whim, Cathy decided to take a flight to Tampa Bay, Florida and then connect to Los Angeles the following morning.
It turned out that the Yankees were playing the Tampa Bay Rays that weekend and Cathy decided to delay their return home by another day and attend the game.
Prior to the game, Christian asked God to let him meet Evan Longoria of the Tampa Bay Rays. At the game, they learned that a large framed autographed photo of Lou Gehrig was being raffled off. Cathy bought a ticket for the raffle.
Then, prior to the game, a video was shown of Lou Gehrig giving his “Luckiest Man Alive” speech when he announced his retirement due to ALS. In turned out that Cathy and Christian had walked into a pregame presentation honoring Lou Gehrig for ALS Awareness Day. Cathy reflected on the odds:
“Here we were, in a city that we were not supposed to be in, preparing to see a Yankees game, and a video of Lou Gehrig was playing on the big screen.” 16
Cathy then related that when the pregame ceremony concluded, she and Christian walked down to the dugout to get a closer view of the players as they were warming up on the field. Then, out of nowhere, a man came up who introduced himself to Christian. It was Evan Longoria.
To cap it all off, Cathy and Christian ended up winning the framed photo of Lou Gehrig. Cathy called these synchronistic events “a wink from the universe” and validation that she was on the right path. 17
Rather than just coincidence, as mentioned, I believe these events are coordinated by spirit beings, spirit guides or our own souls, to indeed communicate that we are on track in investigating reincarnation cases.
Physical Resemblances: Cathy notes “uncanny” physical similarities between Christian and Lou Gehrig. In both faces, there are prominent dimples with the one on the left being distinctly deeper than the one on the right. Christian is left handed, as was Lou. It will be interesting to observe how Christian’s facial features develop over time, to see if a resemblance in facial features persists.
In the James Huston, Jr. | James Leininger case, we have images over four stages of life showing similarity of facial features over time. To view these images, go to: James Leininger Case
Past Life Talent and Behavior: Christian Haupt demonstrates Lou Gehrig’s obsession with baseball, as well as his talent. It was said that Lou Gehrig would rather play baseball than eat, a trait Cathy says her son Christian shares. 18
Relationships Renewed through Reincarnation: If these reincarnation cases are accepted, then the mother of Lou Gehrig, Christian, was reunited with her son Lou through the personas of Cathy Byrd and her son, Christian.
Spirit Beings in Reincarnation Cases: It is likely that spirit guides or Christian’s own soul orchestrated the synchronistic events at the Yankee game in Tampa Bay, which Cathy interpreted as a wink and validation from the universe that they were on the right track in terms of Christian being the reincarnation of Lou Gehrig. These types of events are common in reincarnation cases.
In April 2015, Bruce Jenner publicly acknowledged that he is transitioning from being a man to being a woman. In the approximately 1200 validated reincarnation cases studied by Ian Stevenson, MD of the University of Virginia, Dr. Stevenson found that souls change gender in only 10 percent of cases. In cases derived through my work with Kevin Ryerson, there is also the same proportion of cases with gender change, approximately 10 percent. These observations suggest that one’s soul has a preferred gender to incarnate in.
Gender Change in Reincarnation Cases & Transsexualism
Dr. Stevenson’s research also shows that in cases where gender change occurs, the reincarnated individual can have gender identity issues. In other words, when a man reincarnates as a woman, the reincarnated personality may still retain a male mindset. Conversely, if a woman reincarnates as a man, female traits may persist. In some cases, this may lead the reincarnated individual to be homosexual, lesbian or transsexual/transgender.
Bruce Jenner’s Past Life as Babe Didrikson Zaharias
These observations made me wonder about Bruce Jenner’s past incarnations. In a session with Kevin Ryerson, the spirit guide Ahtun Re revealed that Bruce’s most recent past life was as a female athlete who was one of the first women to compete in the Olympics. Further, Ahtun Re said this woman won events that are part of today’s Olympic decathlon. With some research, I found a possible candidate in Babe Didrikson Zaharias, who lived from 1911 to 1956. In a subsequent session with Kevin, Ahtun Re affirmed that Bruce Jenner is the reincarnation of Babe Didrikson Zaharias.
Past Life Talent: Decathalon Event Medals
The decathlon is made up of 10 track and field events: 100, 400 and 1500 meter runs, the 110 meter hurdles, the long and high jumps, pole vault, shot put, discus throw and javelin throw. Traditionally, winners of the Olympic decathlon, such as Bruce Jenner, are given the title of “Worlds Greatest Athlete.”
Babe Didrikson Zaharias competed in the 1932 Olympics held in Los Angeles. In that year women were allowed to compete in only a limited number of events and a women’s decathlon did not exist. At the 1932 Olympics, Babe won medals in the 80 meter hurdles, the high jump and the javelin throw, reflecting skills needed to win a decathlon, namely, running, jumping and throwing.
Babe was also a championship golfer, which reflects Bruce Jenner’s love for the game of golf. She also excelled at other sports. Babe was known as a fierce competitor who gave it her all, much like Bruce Jenner. For her achievements the Associated Press named her the “Ninth Greatest Athlete in the Twentieth Century.”
Bruce Jenner’s Female Past Lives
Ahtun Re also revealed that in most of Bruce Jenner’s incarnations, Jenner was a woman. In these female past lives, Jenner demonstrated the same tendency to be a very competitive athlete, though this trait could be expressed in various ways, such as being a female warrior. Jenner’s soul’s preference for female incarnations explains why Jenner has stated that he has soul of a woman and why he is transgender.
Reincarnation and Gender Identity
In response to inquires I made regarding gender identity issues, Ahtun Re stated that there is variability in the reasons for these states of being. The simplest category to understand is transgender individuals, as these people almost always result from a soul who incarnates into a gender they are not used to, such as in the case of Babe Didrikson Zaharias | Bruce Jenner.
In contrast, the reasons for why an individual is gay or lesbian can vary. Ahtun Re stated that a small proportion of gay and lesbian individuals are so because they incarnated into a gender they are not used to. The Ian Stevenson case of the Japanese Soldier | Ma Tin Aung Myo is such an example, in which a male soldier reincarnated as a female but retained a male mindset. Though a woman, Ma Tin Aung Myo retained a physical attraction to women and she became a lesbian. To review this case, go to:
Ahtun Re said that in contrast, for the vast majority of people who are gay or lesbian, this is simply the nature of their souls. These people tend to reincarnate across incarnations with the same predispositions, that of being male or female homosexuals.
An individual may also be homosexual for karmic reasons. For example, if an individual is very conservative and condemns or persecutes homosexuals, that person may need to experience a homosexual lifetime as a learning experience.
The important thing is not to judge others for their sexual preferences or gender identities if these qualities are not the same as ours. We all can experience lifetimes in which we are gay, lesbian, transsexual or other variant of gender identity.
Physical Resemblance in Reincarnation Cases: In photos of a young Bruce Jenner, physical resemblance with Babe Didrikson Zaharias is not as apparent as in photos of Jenner as he transitions into being a woman. As Bruce becomes more female, the more he looks like Babe.
Past Life Talent: Babe’s competitive spirit in athletics and her sports achievements are reflected in the life of Bruce Jenner.
Split Incarnation: Babe Didrikson Zaharias died in 1956, while Bruce Jenner was born in 1949. As such, their lives have overlapped by about 7 years. Accordingly, this represents a case of split incarnation, where a soul can animate two incarnations at the same time.
A ReincarnationResearch.com supporter wrote to me with the hypothesis that one of the track stars of the Olympics, Usain Bolt, who has been dubbed the fastest man in the world, may be the reincarnation of Jesse Owens. Owens was also considered the fastest man in the world after winning gold medals at the 1936 Olympics in Nazi Germany.
In reviewing this proposed match, I found that the physical resemblance between Owens and Bolt is extraordinary. Indeed, they look like the same person.
In a session with Kevin Ryerson, Ahtun Re confirmed that Usain Bolt was Jesse Owens in a past lifetime.
Innate Past Life Talent: Usain Bolt has stated that sports and athletics were all that he cared about when he was young. He developed into a world-class sprinter. Of interest, Owens and Bolt have both starred in the same events, the 100 meter, the 200 meter and the 4 X 100 meters relay, setting world records and winning gold medals at the Olympics.
Change in Nationality: Jesse Owens was born in the United States, in Alabama, while Usain Bolt was born in Jamaica.
