I'm team USA. Nathan Adrian is a star - he was simply unbelievable. He finished the race like a champ vs rookies. Phelps is all time great my fav champion.
there was no freaking way Phelps teammates were going to let him down in this race and no way Phelps was not going to deliver....they all knew this race was going into the sports history books....way to go out on top Phelps!
I end up laughing every time I watch this video ... out of sheer joy. The brilliance of the American team ... and especially Nathan's finish is spectacular. Hope to see some of you swimming again at the next Olympics! With all good wishes, Ken W. A.
It was awesome for Japan to win Silver. Fantastic swim by Kitajima especially. I guess he was desperate to make up for his disappointment in the individual events. I think he swam his leg like 0.5s faster than Hansen. Great way to go out.
Track and field, speed skating, and track cycling are all organized the same exact way as swimming. Each distance event gets it's own gold medal. Completely fair, as each event is catered to a different type of athlete (sprinters, distance, etc). Phelps is just that good that he can race different distances and still win.
I'm just under 5'2 and the torsos alone of these swimmers are as tall as my entire height! They also have some muscular necks as well. Their workouts outside of the pool must be insane. BTW, I love the bright green shoes the US team is sporting.Waiting for Rio 2016!!!
+FunnyVideoMaker77 Well, Lochte said in an interview that he would see Phelps in Tokyo. Last year, Lochte didn't believe that Phelps is serious about retiring and he was right. You never know, he might be right again.
When I read the comment the first time I was like what if Michael Phelps didn't even qualify then I heard my self and started crying in laughter. LOL 🏊🏼😂
yeah , exactly . Adrian was on fire in London and he still is the guy to beat this summer in Barcelona . Same for Grevers . They can put up a great team with Adrian , Grevers, Jones and Feigen .
Because he is a great swimmer. His technical skills have been perfected, his explosive strength is incredible (nearly the whole race was pullouts and gliding). He works hard with a great coach. That's how he went that time.
Such a beautiful sport! This is the only sport I'm good at, I suck at everything else. I have tried basketball, volley, martial arts, and I humiliated myself. This is the only sport I'm in love with
Michael Phelps made such a scene whenever anyone insinuated that this wasn't actually the end and that he'd probably be back, telling them they didn't know him and didn't get to decide his life for him, but heeeeeey, four years later and the King returns. Thank God, too.
supatvshowuploader Yup i agree with you... and there is evidence everywhere everyone knows and he's been winning medals at so many meats already he needs to just accept that Phelps the greatest swimmer EVER is back!
Hey, I need an advice/tip. I am Male, 14 years old (Highet: 1.69m) At long courses I swim well, nothing is hard. But when it comes to a Sprint of 25m/50m in any style (Front crawl and backstroke mostly) I am getting nervous that I will not accomplish myself a record/goal. (25m front crawl: 16.9sec 25 backstrokes: 19sec 50m front crawl: 39sec 50m backstroke: 44sec) I may need requiring more andrenaline. Is there anything healthy enough that can increase the amount of sugar in my body? Thank you.
Вот это напор, сила и мощь сборной США по плаванию! Никто не может устоять в таком неворятном порыве, скорости и напору плавцов США. Все четверо плавцов как на подбор - Гиверз, ... Феллпс и Адриан на заключиьельном этапе эстафеты сделали великолепную победу сборнлй США.
Nathan Adrian is a complete Monster.
Nice to see a gamer here.

I think being tall is an advantage in the pool, along with having big feet.

Missing swim season so i decide to watch swim videos lol
Missing being in a swimming club :(. Swimming alone is sad.
Tapering, so bored, and watching swim videos lol.
Phelps be like SIKE!! IM BACK
Lol
Exactly what he's doing, actually. lol
lol
+Ana Molina XD notice that they changed it to final London race😂
I know right
4:56 he really butchered "Kitajima" 😂
_“KIJAMIJA goes in for Japan...”_ 😅
Nathan destroyed everybody LOL
Ikr I love him so much
Ye he's so tall and went underwater for most of his 100m
the result is shown right their lol
he's a legend
Yayyyy Japan! None of the backstroke kick were as fab as Makoto's :P
you make my day :v
I'm going to miss MICHEAL PHELPS, he will never be replace!
Such a massive fan you can't even spell his name👍
Everybody gets replaced ! In friendship , relationship , work and especially sports.
This man is my hero. Truly deserving of the greatest athlete in Olympic history.
Nathan Adrian is a machine. Heart of a champion. My hero forever.
you're right, that 148 was absolutely insane. Bowman (phelp's coach) called it the best yards race ever. Proud of my high school friend/teammate
Nathan Adrian is the absolute hero! Every time!
Nathan Adrian seems to have won this for them. Phelps and the guy from Japan were close.
Way to go Michael Phelps. You are my inspiration.
wow nathan adrian's split 46.85
Not just the best swimmer of all time, but the most dominant athlete in the history of the Olympics....
Phelps will win 200m IM and 100m fly for the fourth time in RIO 2016, and he will win the 200m fly for the third time. You read it here first.
I'AM*
+Sidionian mmmmh FRANCE
+Sidionian Don't forget chad le clos the one who beat Phelps in 200fly
When I read the comment the first time I was like what if Michael Phelps didn't even qualify then I heard my self and started crying in laughter. LOL 🏊🏼😂
Chad will win it
Phelps will maybe slay 200IM and 100 fly
But. Ryan Lochte tho
200 and 400 IM
As someone who can't swim, I searched for this video to post one comment: "I say, isn't it hard paddling out?"
As someone who does swim, I searched for a comment like this one to reply: "yes"
Terrence Hopkins Finally! Someone gets my reference. :D
Nope!
Make me feel so excited..What a good team ❤️
MAN!!! I love Phelps he is just sooooo talented and as a swimmer l see that talent and how hard you have to train to get there!!:)Eish he's GOOD :)

I LOVE MICHAEL PHELPS!!!
yeah , exactly . Adrian was on fire in London and he still is the guy to beat this summer in Barcelona . Same for Grevers . They can put up a great team with Adrian , Grevers, Jones and Feigen .
And to think swimming was initially Mr. Phelp's outlet to deal with ADD. Just shows you anything is possible!
I WAS THINKING OF FREE! IWATOBI SWIM CLUB THE ENTIRE TIME. I WAS LIKE YES! A RELAY WITH HARU, MAKOTO, NAGISA, AND REI. 😄😂
It's even weirder when ur an Otaku and a swimmer. It makes me feel special.
AoT is Love, AoT is Life 〈3 Man Im watching anime but still doing stuff in real life, like siwmming, gym, etc
Lmao I just got done watching it nd wanted to see if they animated it good and they did...just anime muscle are sexy hehe

Swimming is such an underrated sport it makes me sad but we're like a fam. It's a culture and I love it💗
You will always be remembered Michael Phelps
Always fun to watch again and again!
Because he is a great swimmer. His technical skills have been perfected, his explosive strength is incredible (nearly the whole race was pullouts and gliding). He works hard with a great coach. That's how he went that time.
The greatest Olympian of all time.
Phelps: After this I’m retiring
Also Phelps: sike I lied

Is it just me or is Kitajima's name being pronounced awkwardly?
I always thought it was kee tuh jee ma not kit ah jim a
I love Matt Grevers style ...specially in free style events.....he is the best..!!
HES COMING BACK!
Proof?
MrKidxam ummm its like everywhere...search it up on speedo or look on his insta account. Hes training again
MrKidxam
Just search "Michael Phelps" on Google there's hundreds of articles
supatvshowuploader Yup i agree with you... and there is evidence everywhere everyone knows and he's been winning medals at so many meats already he needs to just accept that Phelps the greatest swimmer EVER is back!
I can't stop watching this race :)
Michael Phelps be like in Terminator voice,"I'LL BE BACK!"
Matt Grevers still holds the pool record for my high school swimming. What a tank
What a badass sport
Japan!!Kitajima is legend!👏👏👏
Free! Iwatobi Swim Club live action is here...
Can't stop watching it... :D
Vith Papag same here
As a non-American, I say that Michael Phelps was the greatest swimmer in recent history.
It's amazing how far these guys can go underwater. I aspire to do that one day.

Phelps is the best swimmer in the world....thank you !
Hey, I need an advice/tip.
I am Male, 14 years old (Highet: 1.69m)
At long courses I swim well, nothing is hard.
But when it comes to a Sprint of 25m/50m in any style (Front crawl and backstroke mostly) I am getting nervous that I will not accomplish myself a record/goal.
(25m front crawl: 16.9sec
25 backstrokes: 19sec
50m front crawl: 39sec
50m backstroke: 44sec)
I may need requiring more andrenaline.
Is there anything healthy enough that can increase the amount of sugar in my body?
Thank you.
It isn't called front crawl it is called freestyle:)
Chloe Perry its called both :) i think the Aussies like calling front crawl
During meets, you can eat chocolate or drink coffee, I do both and now my 50 free is 29seconds and 50 back... wait for it... 27 seconds.
JonaKill1213 also work more on your pull and kick
SuperGeorgeShen nice man! i rarely eat between events. especially if its a sprint or a 200 idk maybe i will try that now
Phelps killed it!
I was rooting fir Japan due to Free Iwatobi Swim Club
greatest Olympian ever Michael Phelps

and who is the second Japan swimmer?
they're really2 damn fast!
Japan's second swimmer (breaststroke) was kosuke kitajima, and USA's last swimmer (freestyle) was Nathan Adrian
kitajima was the world's fastest breaststroke swimmer and you can judge Nathan Adrian for yourself at Rio 2016
Nathan Adrian is the WR holder in the 100m free so yea he's crazy good
