  • On Fastskin’s 20th birthday, we gave the fastest man on the planet the original super suit! See what Caeleb Dressel and fellow Olympian Elizabeth Beisel got up to at the pool, and whether the Sub20 barrier remains…
    Can Caeleb swim 50m in under 20 seconds? Watch to find out!

    • @jm6734
      @jm6734 3 роки тому +6

      On the suit he mentions buoyancy multiple times. Do you think this would be noticeable to a mere mortal going longer at a slow steady pace, or is it the high speed? I’m thinking about a speed suit as an alternative to neoprene buoyancy shorts (that really gives a me false sense of confidence).

It's still incredible to see him go that fast after so many weeks of training and tapering so I'm not too surprised, would've been cool to see him swim something else rather than a 50 SCM Free because that's probably one of the worst events for him to do.

    His wrist bends like crazy during the pull. I wonder if he sometimes ends up overdoing that because it makes him feel like he's pulling faster. A similar thing can happen with certain high-drag body positions, where the feeling of water hitting certain parts of your body faster makes you feel like you're going faster, when actually it's slowing you down. If you felt no drag, you wouldn't feel fast...

    • @Q3020Q
      @Q3020Q 3 роки тому

      Yes I noticed that too, about 45 degrees into the pull the wrist angle changes just slightly. I notice that the movement of the arm is directed towards the exit of the pull. The physics of it all make me think that with a slightly longer application of power through stability on the wrist might get him the 0.4 he needs, however, the extra power application could negatively impact the turnover rate. I would be super interested to hear someone like Dr. Alan Wrigley comment on this.

    Beware of using full body suit even randomly like that cause it can fuck up your whole approach of your technique, the way you move efficiently in the water without it with textile suit. Technique is something that can take many years to set and adjust to perfection or near it, and much less time to screw it up, it's not a thing to play around if you wanna stay consistent at the highest level the longest time possible.
    Edit : nothing to do with what I wrote above but this full body suit is oversized on Caeleb, it can be seen by all the abnormal little creases and pleats, it should be all smooth and tight instead like on Beizel.

    • @jefflabianco4459
