3:32 Van Der Burgh obviously took 3 illegal dolphin kicks, and Scozzoli took one as well. This should not be a world record. Both Scozzoli and Van Den Burgh should have been disqualified.

[@lucasvelez5955]

According to FINA, breaststrokes swimmers can only perform one dolphin kick only during the long breaststroke after every turn and takeoff. But you're right, they both did another movement when hit the water. In my opinion, judges considered those as part of the dive in phase ...

[@sarthakdhingra7220]

The fina officials can't legally disqualify them because they have to be 100% sure they saw it. Everybody only found out later about the dolphin kicks by watching the footage.

[@howies.2545]

Sarthak Dhingra true, but the dolphin kicks were still illegal. He is lucky that according to the rules now he cannot be disqualified, because he should be.

[@CIMiclette]

You'd think that the officials would watch a replay of the race afterwards and make sure that no one cheated, it is the Olympics after all... Unless they do and Burgh had them on payroll, which is total you know what.

[@zacharykayser2264]

[@marshallhelmsMW3]

The guy right next to him did a little butterfly kick too. Van Der Burgh tried to cover up his butterfly kicks with the splash off the dive. He also is boarder line butterfly kicking at the end of each of his breast kicks when he takes a stroke.

[@isaacchua0405]

Jacky Tang did u watch that video too?

[@VipestarHD]

he got stripped of his medal

[@SL_Edward_Lin]

He isn't doing butterfly kicks end of his each breaststroke, I am doing breaststroke for 12 years and everyone sees my and many people's kick like that. It's just what you see but he isn't really doing any butterfly kicks on purpose.

[@ODX_Animation]

I almost guarantee that you're wrong. Kitajima is from Japan, a country of honor. He would never stoop to such a low level as these other few breaststrokers have. And no, he did not intentionally do that butterfly kick back in Athens 2004. Kitajima's style is beautiful and flows, the kick was a natural part to that style during the pullout. He has perfected that pullout and would never change it now.

[@manjam667]

yeah not 1 kick but 3 kicks

[@Hardplanerz]

+Man Jam Yeah that's what I saw from the start...

[@jamesnoble246]

Cameron James right his legs were straightening then bending 3 times

[@thaneechang7994]

"DOUBLE Dolphin kick"when he plunge into the water（3:31-3:35）,That's why he lead a half body when all swimmers lift heads.You can recheck it with slow-motion speeds（5:08-5:11）. No one doubt his ability level ,but it's really not a FAIR play.

[@Sam-zm3se]

everyone else did it

[@lexsoft3969]

Brendan Hansen. When I saw his name, I didn't expect anything other than his beautiful stroke. But when I saw his name at the 3rd place, yeah... good effort. He is still my model to learn breaststroke.

lots of comments about the kicks off the dive. Doesn't really help that much, there's so much air around the legs at that point that you don't get any propulsion out of it, and it really only increases drag.

[@NRClips3414]

I think the point was really that they intentionally tried to get extra propulsion in their underwater by cheating, but I do somewhat agree with you that it wouldn't help much.

[@liamhammons9533]

That was residue from the start and therefore legal

[@Smilextreeme]

that 3 dolphin kicks though

[@Kiryienka97]

In my opinion, I don't think van der Burgh did it on purpose. One of the techniques used by some swimmers is to do a fly kick on the surface of the water on the dive (which is legal). Sometimes this results in an involuntary continuation of movement in your legs, which can result in what you saw at 3:31. Not saying he shouldn't have been DQed, just trying to explain a possible cause. My respect for South African sportsmen continues knowing van der Burgh admitted to the extra kicks.

[@rustyshackleford7929]

I've been a swimmer a long time and your always allowed to do butterfly kicks when you first dive in because the kick for breaststroke slows you dow if you do it right away.

[@Yanniikhero]

If you see at 5:08 ,really everybody does it, but maybe not that obvious. Also Sprenger does it who claims that Van der Burgh did it. If Sprenger would have broken the world record it would have been the same except that Van der Burgh wouldn't accuse Sprenger of doing it because he's an honest man and also told everybody that he did that extra dolphin kick...
