Michael's effort level there is lower than most people have walking from the couch to the fridge.
eh that's not that easy
@@bLuemaNMKO it rly is
his muscles and his form are top tier which is why he barely needs any strokes to get across the pool. when your form is wrong you have to put a lot more energy into fighting the water -- instead, we learn to be more water dynamic through a LOT of core work
@@bLuemaNMKO For a high level swimmer it's easier than walking
@@sydneycrystal243 So it's less about swimming in the pool hard and more about working on your form?
That Phelps guy could be an Olympic level athlete if he had the right training
and lays off the pot
You are late to the party pal

Incredible how Phelps seems to gain forward momentum while doing nothing! Wish I could swim like that!
Behind that effortless there are tons of effort
Practice dude lots of it
Any parts that he uses to provide forward propulsion he provides TONS of it, while keeping the rest of his body completely streamlined and buoyant.
A session a day for a year or so will get you feeling much much closee to how he looks here.
He swims like a fish, probably even has webbed feet!
I don't even swim 🤡
I don't really know if an average person swims like that. Kudos to the sacrificial lamb that was sent to make that disparity in skills look even wider.
I think that’s the average. Just go to a lake most kids are just floating only a few do down and backs past the line.
it’s honestly a good bit better than average
@@seanknox7321 Inam average and first 20 meters i swim better than that 🤣
Didn't know the average person swims in a shirt
@@av4rici0u55 lots of American men feel shame about stomach fat. Obesity in America is average.
For a second I thought Phelps was just going to walk faster than him. He has a huge stride.
His legs are actually shorter than the more proportional 6'3" guys, although in strokes I can definitely agree with your comment
@@dank2112Yeah, he actually has short legs and a super long torso. He has long arms. His shoulders are also VERY wide, and his body tapers down to his feet.
He was literally built to be the worlds greatest swimmer, and I don’t know if we’ll ever see a human being surpass him naturally. I’ve never seen someone dominate their sport like MP did.
@@D71219ONE i have longer legs and shorter torso, arm span is 6'8" I'm also 6'3"
@@D71219ONE Johnny Weismuller? He set over 50 WRs at a time when competitive swimming didnt even take place in pools. And was the first person to swim faster than a crocodile
@@dank2112 his legs are doing maybe 40% of the propulsion. His "wing span" is doing 60% or more.
Literally every swimmer against an average person
That was Michael Phelps warmup pace anyway. It’s all about technique.
And literally Phelps against average swimmer too x)
Honestly Michael Phelps should be an Olympian, he'd surely win a lot of gold medals.
Uh
Wasn’t he one?
@@bowmaster6688 shhh its a joke
@@bowmaster6688 r/wooooooooooosh
Creo que el solito tiene más de 30 medallas de oro de orooooo!!!
@@oscarnoesanchez677723
He put in so much effort throughout his life that him swimming that fast is effortless for him.
what a great quote
He’s not even swimming fast, he’s probably swimming at as cooldown pace. Source: I’m top 10 in age group for my state and that’s about the stroke rate I use for cooling down
@@nathanjoe6655 real name?
@@nathanjoe6655 when?
@@nathanjoe6655 oh nice what age group?
As a swimmer, I could not stop admiring that form. The way he doesn't waste a single movement. Those underwater techniques. DANG.
dang.
Ain't no way they didn't give him goggles
well phelps doesnt need them over, bro broke the 200 free wr with water in his goggles, his coach used to step on them when he was in the bathroom and make him swim with broken goggles.
@@olivianotrodrigo 200 Fly WR
@@swimmingrobot1219 i apologize
@@olivianotrodrigo why would the coach step on it
@@pixel6134 to break them so they fill up with water when he swims. its a technique, so when it happens at a meet, ur prepared
0:38 bro is literally a fish
Well, it sort of helps Phelps that he's not dragging his laundry with him.
Wouldn’t even make the tiniest bit of a difference here 😂😂 effort level of Phelps here is like riding a bike so slowly you‘d almost fall over but not quite…
@@larafroeschl7083 But it surely affects the other guy. It's like he's swimming with an anchor. They handicapped the wrong guy here.
@@jlpack62 yeah I know I’m just saying even without the extra drag you wouldn’t see a difference in how this „race“ would look
@@larafroeschl7083 yeah I know, but andy wouldn't be struggling as much.
It doesn't make that much of a handicap. I've swam wearing clothes and it just makes u a bit slower it doesnt force to put much more effort in or ruin your form
He is legit in a league of his own as an Olympian. No Olympic athlete in swimming or any other sport cones close to the number of medals he has won.
Swimming is a niche sport tho. Not as much competition when compared to running.
And those bong rips were classy, no lie.
@@SW-nx4jz there still are, "dive" more into it
And regardless of the lesser competition compared to track and field, the athletes are much more closely matched in swimming.
Also, it's more physically demanding than track and field, almost all physically able but untrained persons can complete a 100 meter dash or attempt a long jump, regardless of the result.. whereas swimming for 50 meters straight is much more challenging, forget 100, if it's not a trained swimmer. Most people will burn out inside 20 meters
@@dummy9517 they also compete in several events in one set of games, there’s plenty of athletes who were just as dominant in there sport but only are eligible for one medal per games.
It’s pretty dumb to count medals even every event gets one Vs. a sport like hockey that only gets 1.
That's not an average person... He's faster than most people.
Phelps looks like a giant dolphin.
"most people"
I think you mean, "everyone that ever lived"
@@skreelthebarbarianreread it dingus
@@cooperramos2700 reread it dingus
“He’s faster than most people…. WHO NEVER SWIM BEFORE IN THEIR LIVES”
Michael's body was made to swim. Long upper body and longer arms.
Makes me think if that gene keeps being passed on, we'll have mermaids in some million years 😂
I just love Phelps. The guy moves like a dolphin through the water. If I could be any other species, I would be a dolphin.
cool man
I thought you were gonna say you would be a Phelps
@@isntitrich000 same thing.
Give this guy a medal already jeez
The display of efficiency is incredible.
Well thats what happens when you swim all day every day
Do you expect me to believe that this should be an average person 💀
I mean a lot of people don't even know to swim
Yes😁
@@juicyblox5729 that's what he is saying. Andy is more than average
this “average person” is a dude with a fairly muscular build. That’s saying something
Nah it’s not, those that say it is are just terrible at swimming.
Pretty sure Phelps swims faster than I run
I wish this is how they did every Olympic event. It would actually show how good the athletes are and would make it way more entertaining.
this didn't show the difference at all. In fact, I could do what michael phelps did here when compared to that other guy, and I'm not anywhere near a pro swimmer, I just had lessons when I was a kid. Michael phelps legit wasn't even trying at all even at the end.
hey genius they obviously didn't mean literally this. just the idea but executed well would be good@@user-nj9ru4ef2w
The average person would have a lot of difficulty even completing some Olympic races without being disqualified
@@hearingninja considering the avg person doesn't know any of the 4 strokes, no duh...
I maintain the Olympics should mandate that an average Joe/Jane compete as well, so we can gain some perspective on just how highly trained these athletes are.
Lol that would be a waste of money.
@@hiranom20 Well they'd never win of course, but it would add perspective as to how these athletes compare to average people, ands it certainly would be entertaining to watch an Olympic-level long jumper leap 27 feet and the Average Joe jump 6 feet. LOL
Look up Somalia's Nasra Abukar. Your prayers have been answered!
They do, to an extent… Eddie The Eagle and Eric The Eel spring to mind
@@rankinlas the commentating would be hysterical: "Mike Powell's long jump of 8.95 meters could be a new world record! Now we're going to see Paul Smith's jump... wow, 1.8 meters. What's that in feet, Dan? 6 feet? Yes, he's got to be happy with that, especially since Paul has to leave toon to get the kids to soccer practice..."
Craziest thing is this. If Phelps swims all out, and you (or me) are walking alongside, we have to almost jog to keep up. I did the math.......same with many of the Olympic swimmers.
That’s actually insane 😮
This is so hilarious! Love it
Mp is just having fun at this point
The “YUGH” at the end 💀
I know people are definitely gonna disagree but for an average person who doesn't swim, in the original video I was pretty surprised by Andy
People sitting in their couch whilst watching olympics: "thats not even hard, I could do better, he missed it"
does anyone think that watching swimming? I doubt it.
Honestly the average person could swim faster if he didn’t wear a prison jumper to the pool 🏊♀️
That Philips guy or what ever his name is, he's actually a decent swimmer, I'd love to see him compete professionally
While it wasn't funny it was a good example of the use of a Laughter track
Normal persons don't wear a shirt into the pool !
lol ikr
I do this with my no swimmer friend, but when Im passing him, I don't just swim by his side, I do back stroke underneath while waving at him 😂
this would look identical if it was HS junior varsity swim member vs. guy who has never swimmed
That’s his warm up pace
I like when the average person hits the side that’s what I do sometimes especially when I do backstroke 😅
I think Mr. Average actually is a little bit better than average...
O.o
No way.
He's probably only been in water a handful of times. I doubt more than 5 times in his life.
@@zenwilds2911 Yeah, he is clearly either intentionally or not being a clown.
At 0:10 he bumps against the border
I think I could swim better than that and I hate swimming.
MP looks like a giant sea creature trapped in a tiny pool, the other guy is a human that fell into it struggling to get out.
Imagine that Phelps dude with an Olympic team spot. I think he would do really well
when is in the water its like he just becomes a fish just knows how to swim like how we run and get faster at running
The "average" is better than average actually. When i go swim at public hours, i see average people way way worse than that. And actually now i feel strong because i am kinda the same :P sometimes when i have someone in front of me i totally disable my feet and still even imbalanced i go faster. Average people don't know how to take air, and how to move the feet, they place their body bad in the water slowing themself down and destroying their stamina for no reason. If you are an average guy who goes to the swimming pool and want to train, PLEASE, first of all. Focus on your technique. Is pointless, USELESS TRAIN SWIMMING IF YOU MOVE BAD. Useless.
Bad movement still gives cardio benefits. So not useless. But not efficient.
@@stuffbenlikes i dont agree. Bad movement can bring pain at the neck if you don't breath well. Pain at the back and so on. edit. actually yes you are right...you get cardio benefits but is it worth if you have pain on the back after?
@@dal968 There's a difference between bad movement that's inefficient and bad movement that causes injury. Either way, it is certainly good to learn correct form. Have a great day!
Agree the average person is probably worse than the guy in the video. In summertime my friends sometimes ask me to take them to the pool with me since I go every week throughout the year and they're worse than that even though they're all dudes in their early to mid 20s.
@@JWFitness1 I mean yeah obviously but most people just learn how to not drown when they are really young and then go swimming a handful of times a year so obviously the average person is gonna be terrible compared to people who actually swim as a hobby
That spit in the last tho😂
As one of average swimmers, I genuinely want to swim with Michael Phelps !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That front crawl at the beginning demonstrated so well how important technique is with swimming.
if i cant swim, does that make me below average or extinct?
Bro swims faster than me running down my stairs
Shows how much a difference good technique makes.
😂that was the funniest, thank you for making me laugh!! 😊
The effort of the average person swimming vs Phelps is praiseworthy.Just the effort...
Lol im a swimmer swimming for 9 years this is hilarious
He is officially a Submarine
That may be an average person but certainly not an average swimmer.
and it’s crazy that micheal isn’t even trying
Anyone else didn't understand why the crowd was laughing when they would get destroyed too?
That guy is pretty damn good for the average person
I've always wanted to know how Michael Phelps swimming compares to a normal person running on dry ground
His reach is insane, he has arms like Mr. Fantastic
Bros a dolphin
That's sigils' origin story
FYI wearing a speedo makes a huge difference.
I'll never forget jumping into the pool wearing one for the first time (1987 LOL)....I felt like a seal.
It's not even fair lol. Phelps is a human fish hybrid.
1. Michael is taller than the average guy. So the average guy must double his efforts to make it close to Mike's minimal movement.
2. Mike was a dolphin in his previous life.
It would be interesting to see a race btween Michael in water and a regular guy running
the guy running would completely destroy any swimmer ever. water is 800 times denser than air, so they are just very different activities. while running, an average person could probably run 100 yards in about 20 seconds, but the average swimmer swims 100 yards in anywhere from 1:10 to around 50 seconds depending on age, and the world record time is just under 40 seconds
@@rmc_fan yeah, probably I mean the density argument isnt really valid since the fluid dynamic is different but I totally agree wth you. I just think it would be interesting to see wether the guy running would struggle.
@@mikhaelhalbar417 Yeah thats true, if water was less dense, it would actually be harder to swim fast now that I think about it. but I see what you mean, it would be interesting to compare or at least see the difference in speed.
@@rmc_fan yeah exactly. I dont think it will happen any time soon tho😂
Phelps should be allowed to identify as a fish.
Why is Mr. Average wearing a shirt? Even if he wasn’t a professional swimmer, Phelps has an advantage. Do you know how much a shirt weighs you down?
Smooth as a Shark; Silent as a Shark!
bro humiliated him in 69 ways 💀
Normal person participating in all olympic races would highlight the abilities and talent of athletes. It will make watching races even more fascinating experience.
Honestly that would be fun and interesting to watch
They should do that for every sport.
Like with soccer, they let some fans do some challenge during halftime.
Video title suggestion: " Phelps FLOATS faster than an average swimmer "
It took this guy 60 seconds to swim one way and back. It took Phelps 30 years.
Apparently professional swimmers feet are 50% bigger, thats why they win all the time
Dayum, i’m a swimmer and it’s actually crazy how streamline he is, gotta work on that.
Thousands of hours of training vs. thousands of hours of not training.
This is why technique is so important in almost any sport whether it's Swimming, Tennis, Kickboxing etc.
I'm more than sure Michael has a genetic where he doesn't produce the average amount of lactic acid, so it means he doesn't get fatigued easily as the average human. For a swimmer that is downright a superhuman power.
Genetic push+training like the best in the world = a real champion
Take Kipchoge for example, he also probably has slower lactic acid build up and insane lung capacity, but he also probably trained hardest out of all
Yes, but don’t discredit his technique either. Every little movement he makes is so smooth and effortless.
Lactic acid isn't causing fatigue. Lactic acid is just a byproduct of generating energy. You get fatigue from the partially from the increase in h+ ions generated from energy breakdown/generation and usage of atp. (H ions produce a more acidic environment, which makes it hard for the body to function properly)
@@kaiser24core77 Yea Lactic Acid causes the burning sensatation that people associate with fatigue.
He's basically a dolphin.
that is not your average person, that guys one of the slowest swimmers ive ever seen
The guy even false started too bruh
It's almost like it helps to be tall, fit and well trained
This isn't a comparison, it's just a humiliation ritual for Andy.
Bruh it’s like that wii party u minigame vs master difficulty
Phelps is awesomely both strong and graceful.
I had to squint but I believe I saw gills on the sides of Phelps' chest.
Love a good side by side comparison!
You forgot ‘Doping’ on the title. Should be “Doping Michael Phelps”
That's clearly a below average person. No need to compare Phelps to someone who can barely swim to make him look even better than he already is.
this guy is up against a literal fish
Next Micheal Phelps vs Average Dolphin
Proof that Michael Phelps is a different species
Phelps be like: How do I not humiliate him too much?🤔
im supprised that phelps managed to keep his hips up while going so slow
If that phelps guy continues working hard he could be amongst the greatest swimmers one day.
Michael Jordan
Michael Phelps
Michael Schumacher
Great athletes
I’m like: man is that a fish?🐟
That average person had really good form, made michael phelps look like a beginner
i don't think the average person crashes with the side of the pool or randomly loses momentum mid swim
Like a greased fish v a conbine harvester.
Phelps vs drawning person
This "average person" looks like he unlocked his level 1 swimming ability yesterday. Also Phelps swimming form is not technically perfect. He lowers his crawl arm a bit early. But Usain Bolt doesn't use perfect form sprinting either.
The guy is not average person definitely has experience in swimming. He can't hide it.
