Katie Ledecky NEW World Record 1500m Freestyle World Championships ЧМ по плаванию 2015

[@Ellie-kk5pq]

Was I the only one really proud when she caught up to the swimmers in the 8th and 9th lanes

[@ipodmute3824]

How does she keep up that pace? Insane I feel sorry for the other swimmers that they are around in her era, and she's only 19........

[@elisecarey4756]

IpodMute younger at the time this video was made

[@ddn_2017]

she's too tall compered to them, that's why

[@jiabrown2636]

She's was 19?!?!

[@luiscedeno7856]

she has amazing technique

[@lindamotschiedler4134]

Unless you are a swimmer or know someone who competes you have no idea how hard what she just did was or how hard they work every day. Her technique was flawless. That’s why she is so much better than most of the others. Just like Michael Phelps was.

[@aries4alexs]

Uhh she lapped 3 SWIMMERS?!? If she added an extra 100m, she would've finished 1st AND 5th, that's INSANE

[@handsken1234]

I think she would catch one more in the next 100 🤩

[@alexismaddie__]

At the end of the olympics, all of the gold medalists should have a dodge ball fight and have a grand champion.

[@silvermoonight]

lololol

[@pauljacobs7020]

Sydnee James iiiiii

[@JoeU54]

Katie, You are SOOO awesome! I actually loved watching you race more than Micheal Phelps/ Fellow MARYLAND Resident. Way to GO!

[@keenanbartlett2477]

15:35 She looks at the scoreboard like she's checking to make sure her flight is on schedule. Incredible swim.

[@Handles-are-dumb]

Just imagine, she beat that record by 15 seconds this year :P

[@rainbowriderjt7833]

She didn't just beat them, she SMOKED them bad!!!! Never seen anything like that before!

[@AEMoreira81]

Not too often do you have the leader putting someone a lap down.

[@guittadabe5214]

She didn't seem tired after that swim! Super-human Katie!!!

[@sydneymitchell9503]

I dont think that red line has what it takes to beat katie

[@silvermoonight]

that red line was katie's own record haha

[@kingofthenerds7925]

@@silvermoonight that's the joke

[@kingofthenerds7925]

Sad that it's the only mode of competition when Ledecky's swimming

[@aidansales4205]

It probably sucks knowing that you have to swim against ledecky

[@integrativenaturalmedicine3897]

Often times, when people say you never know what might happen, it's true; but if someone tells you that might beat her, it's just not remotely believable or possible. Just got done watching her at Stanford and she won the 1650m by 22 seconds. Of which, that girl who got 2nd place at Standford in that race is as fast if not faster than the people getting second at these Olympics who are competing against Katie. The person who lost this race did so by 27 seconds, a difference of 5 seconds. 5 seconds is more than what most anyone gives up in just 150m. Katie gained about 3 seconds for ever 150m over the 2nd place finisher in this race.

[@AEMoreira81]

Her margin of victory officially was almost 29 seconds here, and a number of swimmers were actually a full lap down to Ledecky.

[@golfer435]

Nah, for them it's an honor to swim against her

[@Sapphire9764]

well, the red line put up a good fight. So much fun to watch her swim!

[@silvermoonight]

haha that red line was her own previous record

[@ogiecruz8063]

Katie Ledecky's absolutely superb stamina is her tremendous advantage .

[@obmanutiyukrainets]

queen of dolphins ! how she feels the water so ?

[@jbobbster]

Anybody know why the 1500m isn't part of the Olympics for the women? I've never understood that, and Rowdy Gaines on NBC thinks it's absolutely crazy that it's not on the Olympic program. Katie would surely have another gold medal.

[@agusromero357]

probably because they know she'd be the winner either way LOL

[@dsfddsgh]

Well for some reason the men don't race the 800m freestyle at the Olympics either.

[@kyoungshinkim5598]

because they take too long

[@amywise2918]

They are having the 1500m in the 2020 games.

[@Ilovemunchlax1]

They're adding the womens 1500 and mens 800 next games.

[@KeithHiew]

When I do the 1500, I lose count all the time, so I help myself keep count by alternating the 100’s with the flutter kick and the “sort of 2-beat kick” that she’s doing. I thought I was doing it wrong and then I saw her technique and thought.. okay I’m in good company. But er.. compared to her I’m like a row boat against a speed boat.

[@luckduck7]

My Coach: 300 warm up Me: *dies* Katie’s coach: 1000 warm up Katie: that’s to easy

[@arandomperson3015]

How is that hard lol

[@deanmilwainoly3966]

More like 2500 warm up

[@TheGanando]

The announcers were wrong lmao. Addlington's British record was 8:14.10 in the 800meter. The 8:11 they were referring to was one of Ledecky's old world records in the 800

[@starlight4086]

She still looks like shes sprinting even after 8 minutes. This is truly amazing

[@SeanP7195]

This is just strange to watch. This is what it looks like when people at the Y swim against olympic swimmers. Except its Olympic swimmers she's racing against.

[@HeidiSue60]

right? it looks like an athlete against a junior high swim team

[@davidbutler973]

Wow, this Performance was absolutely perfect!!! Pure Dominance, All Great Performances Overall, though Katie Ledecky is "Super Woman", of the Pool 🇨🇦🇺🇸

[@vashspero4251]

She's on another league, they should allow swimmers to compete without her and the one who comes first gets the "Katie Ledecky Award"

[@alexhodge5327]

She looks like a rock climber. I hope to God she isn't on something illegal. She hasn't failed a drug test ... yet.

[@chriiiiis]

@@alexhodge5327 She hasn't failed a drug test, and usually athletes of her level get them regularly. Katie isn't on drugs, she's just extremely blessed and works her ass of to where she is now.

[@johnhuddleston8647]

absolutely unreal!! Excellent job Katie:)

[@bryansmith4403]

Wow. First time I've seen her lap people. She is a true beast. Love it.

[@ianesdantgallinari4730]

Ledeck é Um fenômeno que surge uma vez a cada século

[@greenkitty82]

Ledecky is an inspiration - I'd say one of the best female swimmers ever, she's in a completely different league of her own.

[@BerserkCD]

You're not even watching a race anymore, you're just watching Ladecky perform a time trial

[@schwamar]

Who are the two fellows calling the race? I love the accents.

[@MaraschinoMary1]

LOL me too! Let me know if you find out! Makes listening just as much fun as watching. The spirit of sport, and you can hear how happy they are for her.

[@hjbrowne3016]

Love this swimmer!! AMAZING _ GO KATIE

[@dlrsnate5100]

My local aquatic center had long days today,,,so it was my first time swimming 50m one way. That helps me put 1500m into perspective and can appreciate this feat. Shout out to anyone who can swim 1500m straight. I’m maybe going 1000m-2000m over the course of 4 hours in 25m lanes,, including breaks, water, bathroom , I’m working my way up and I’m excited to try the 50m long days again!! Every Tuesday and Thursday :)

[@irawan35]

SO AWESOME!!!

[@schumi246]

I wonder if she has ever thought about doing open water 10k as well, that is usually a few days after the pool swimming is done. Galen Rupp was a 5k and 10k runner, until he ran his first ever marathon at trials, and is second ever in Rio, where he got the bronze, there is always the possibility.

[@silvermoonight]

she said no because she won't able to do 200m if she does open water. i guess it's a training thing

[@user-ly3un3ok2t]

"Katie Ledecky is human" That sounds fake but okay...

[@comic215]

Wow she’s good!

[@23ofSeptember]

She doesn't kick very often. Swim coaches for years have stressed that swimmers kick as hard as they can. I never kicked much when I swam, but that was because I had to think about it and I always forgot. I just let my arms do most of the pulling.

[@audreyteng4632]

Kicking hard for 1500m is impossibly tiring. What you see is standard distance swimming practice. You can only kick hard for about 200m.

[@user-ly3un3ok2t]

She has the best long-distance swimming form in women's swimming in history. It's tiring and ineffective to constantly kick in any 400m+ races.

[@machin8593]

Yes she usually kicks in the last lap hence her amazing tendency to get very fast very suddenly at the end of her races I think

[@cmeso23]

A coach of mine has us only kick the last 200 of an 8

[@ksuhump]

The greatest domination of an athlete.....

[@aSm0jUiCe]

She's not even exhausted after finishing. Lmao

[@tayloradams5139]

I bet her parents are so proud of her. I know I would be

[@angelpico3236]

i wonder what is the secret of her success in swimming

[@ginabolesa7096]

she's magnificent swimmer😀

[@kimmi9397]

So amazing...

[@isabelledavis2981]

I can’t wait to see the synchronized swimming 🏊‍♀️ team free routine and the swimming 🏊‍♀️ events in the 2024 summer Olympic Games in Paris France 🇫🇷

[@thegosugamer1]

Ledecky's 800m split in 1500m race is faster than everyone racing 800m free at the Olympics. She could win two 800m races back to back without any rest lol

[@MatthewReiser123]

Best 1500m I can do is 30:00 (HALF as fast!). But then, I'm twice as old!

[@bobbyc.1111]

i love the Olympics when people come together to play and celebrate

[@trwent]

This is not the Olympics. There is no women's 1500 m at the Olympics.

[@Robot404_]

Is this the womens world record or the mens' as well?

[@bango_cs]

womens only

[@花の専門店]

+James Paulson what about the men's record?

[@Robot404_]

James Paulson Oh, thanks! Idk why i thought a girl could beat a men's world record in any olympic sport.

[@bango_cs]

Robot404 Im pretty sure men are around 14:30

[@sharonm0919]

+Mute you can't compare men and women because the men are faster so women and men are separated

[@biganimetiddiesjr.321]

Seeing this was crazy

[@jakethemuss3]

Superhuman. I mean these are the best swimmers in the entire world she is competing against, and she absolutely annihilates the field. It looks like an Olympian swimming against a bunch of middle schoolers.

[@aliannagagea8712]

I'm sorry, but how does that even happen... how fam someone be that good?!

[@RayFliesAway]

she's turboed,apprently. The way she swims, the power she generates, amazes me. She is the BOSS😎

[@floridagators4life]

GO KATIE GO

[@ddn_2017]

omg im gonna cry ;(

[@Mathewdavid4]

Absolutely amazing and ground...water breaking. She can’t turn it off. Astoundingly impressive and motivational. I just received two more steroid injections in my spine and I watch her races everyday as I recoup and recover and get stronger in the pool everyday. Role model and inspiring. I grew up with women in my life and in tv being my influencers. I’m 36 and it continues! Much love and appreciation! 🤘🤙😍👌💪🔥✌️

[@liamg2271]

There's no point, they have no chance. It would be more entertaining if a sailfish or mako shark were in the lanes. Ledecky is awesome.

[@dlrsnate5100]

9:10 announcer was spot on,, people left the day one of the biggest records was broken

[@crxracer805]

She's a machine

[@jimsmith8435]

The British record was 8:14 and not 8:11 for the 800. Whoever the Scottish announcer is, he doesn't know his numbers.

[@gotama570]

Ok even the last one was so fast

[@Fuktupratbag]

What I want to see is Katie Ledecky and Michael Phelps go head to head in a 400 m Freestyle and the one who wins must give the other 1 of their gold medals for 30 days. THAT would be a sight to see.and besides, 30 days is plenty of time to brag and gloat over

[@brownmessi2196]

Phelps would win obviously

[@zoomzoom670]

+Profanity ? easily. Katie ledecky time would only be like 30th among men.

[@brownmessi2196]

Don't want to take anything away from her, she is absolutely amazing, and she's only 19, but having her race Phelps is unfair.

[@zoomzoom670]

+Profanity ? Oh for sure. If anything its that impressive that she would be around 30th among men considering the physical advantages men have. She's easily the best female swimmer I've ever seen.

[@brownmessi2196]

Zain K I do think that Ledecky could win if the race was 1500m though, just because she is more accustomed to distance while Phelps is more of a sprinter

[@Tehila_G]

I don't feel my arms, just by watching this...

[@manhl7620]

Ledecky has a 15.25.48 in final

[@ASD128London]

+Man Hymn Leung do you have a link to a youtube clip of the final?

[@makisxatzimixas2372]

All of them Casually breaking my sprint records in a 1500m race...

[@ivantorres7706]

Dude, it must suck getting lapped

[@jas2994]

how the heck did she swim for 15 minutes straight i can barely do a 200 free without my legs feeling on fire

[@jimqian6170]

China is number 7 arriving. Great!!!

[@austecon6818]

She looks less tired after that WR than I did after 4 x 100m intervals today (first swim in many years)

[@markanthony4930]

This woman is insane

[@briann517]

she won an iPhone from unbox therapy

[@atiboyful]

Ledecky is a horse! Janet Evans was a Ballerina and it took many, many years for Ledecky to beat her WR's in the 800 and 1500

[@atiboyful]

Come on! Janet was like 5'5" and about 120lbs when she raced. Ledecky is 5'10 and 155lbs. They were both teenagers when they they set the world records! I wonder how they would have performed against each other if they had raced together??

[@sarahshoemaker6150]

+atiboyful Ledecky is an extremely talented swimmer. Maybe she's bigger, but that doesn't mean much. It is not as if Ledecky is a one-shot-wonder. She has done this repeatedly. Someone better will always come along. Katie is proving herself better. That doesn't lessen Evans. Evans is still the fantastic swimmer she always was (in the eyes of history. I doubt she's still as fantastic physically as she was in her swimming prime.) If anything, it simply is an example of someone else continuing a fantastic legacy of proving all of the nay-sayers wrong when they say someone is too young.

[@atiboyful]

don't get me wrong!~ Ledecky is a HUGE talent and I hope I live long enough (55) to see her continue to improve on her WR's. I guess I am being nostalgic here and Janet was my early heartthrob in women's swimming! I am warming up to Katie now and she seems to be picking up the torch that Evans left! Can't wait for Rio!

[@sarahshoemaker6150]

***** Glad to hear it! :) Ledecky is a huge inspiration for me, and she's from around the place I lived when she went to the Olympics, so she was a local hero of sorts.

[@carriewhitmore]

Are you going to say Spitz is better than Phelps too?

[@richardgrace4500]

[@summer5684]

2024 anyone? ❤

[@bamadad53]

Would it surprise anyone to find out Katie has at least 51% “fish” DNA

[@teeeye232]

let's give a fuck about everybody else. no second no third or any other swimmer here. only Ledecky and the american crowd.

[@grifter84]

When a once-in-a-generation talent demolishes the competition like that and breaks her own world record, goddamn right nobody gives a fuck about second place. How can you when you can barely even see the other swimmers, they're so far behind Ledeck?! It's not chauvinism when you're really the best.

[@MaraschinoMary1]

Did you not watch the little red line across the screen where she was on pace to beat the world record I guarantee you every other swimmer in the water was pulling as hard for her as they were for themselves.

[@billy3568]

SHE WAS ONLY 18 WTF!

[@azanagee-karim1448]

She smoked the other swimmers so bad that she could have changed and they still wouldn't have been done.
