Mens 100m Butterfly Final - hombres 100m mariposa final Beijing 2008 Phelps vs Cavic

[@markoroyal]

Doesn't matter the sport, doesn't matter the circumstance but this is without doubt the greatest race of all time, bravo Michael simply sensational.

[@MrMasterofStars]

0.01 with 1st and 2nd, and 0.01 with 3rd and 4th. WHAT A RACE!

[@lah287]

Cavic sets the 90m world record again

[@SuperPc66]

grande il migliore nuotatore di tutti i tempi

[@patriciapatterson4315]

Cavic touched the pressure plate first, but not hard enough for it to register. He glided in, Michael powered in. That was the difference.

[@showylee1980]

thank them both for putting up one of the greatest swimming race in history!

[@locinity]

5:45 Difference between 1st and 2nd place-0.01sec Difference between 3rd and 4th place -0.01 sec

[@nedostizni2]

This is getting better and better each time mate!!! I love your comments :D

[@deepinbrain]

Cavic is the best swimmer ever!

[@yasinmunoz]

This is spectacular! It is the best race in history certainly.

[@RyanPrentiss]

Lol, you have to greatest eyes in history to see that. And for your eyes to be better than the underwater view and the timing technology, you are sir... simply amazing. You have Superman eyes.

[@XxSpartaxX]

Very good point BLue... excellent point... Phelps was NOT as rested as all these other swimmers were walking on deck...and STILL he won! :) he's amazing

[@jackersinho]

que video espectacular!!!!!!!!

[@tadmvmb]

the coming back of phelps was uncredible !! he didn't give up ! thats the real champion !

[@ImagindeDash]

i see this video and i know that this already happened but i can see over and over again and feel excited

[@aerosmithmotleycrue]

very nice. there was a kid on here ( not this vid but on youtube) that tried to tell me that Cavic didnt hit the pad hard enough, but it stopped the clock didnt it? if he didnt hit it hard enough, he would have had to hit the pad again. then there could be a legit dispute

[@alisonmarte7592]

Phelps is such an inspiration...wow:) amazing man:D

[@Pedda89]

great Video! Great Quality! :D Keep on, making videos in! :)

[@gamecubedave000]

ur an american hero phelps, keep it up.

[@jadelouiseflynn]

Can Phelps do the same later on today? I REALLY HOPE SO!!!!

[@Dr.Shredz]

what does OR mean next to Phelp's time?

[@juandi2570]

Cavic is a machine but Michael was better today. Their rivalry is awesome for the sport. It's gonna be interesting next year when they face each other without NO HIGH TECH SUITS. Michael rules.

[@howIronicle]

okay first problem with the video the pictures were upside down and Cavics hands were NOT on the wall so this it was not the actual snapshot of the finish until both players are on the wall.2nd the guy in the video was the general manager. he had nothing to do with inventing or making the touch pad all he does is keep things in line from what ive researched and last of all Cavic is wearing a fullbody suit( is now illegal) witch takes off a full second of your time phelps wasnt so he still won.

[@howIronicle]

no this video was uploaded by a youtube user. it was recorded by the official Olympic recording staff, this was also the same footage of when it actually happened lol i still have it on my DVR lol it was recorded in real time durpuhdurp and uover all micheal phelps still has that medal and the Olympics hasnt taken it away from him because he won but im not joking this time lets just end the argument at that cause because arguing over youtube is just annoying bye.

[@nedostizni2]

Let me teach you about some other things you do not know about: If you did not know Omega produces one of the most well-known and recognized watches in the world.Omega has been the official timekeeping device of the Olympic Games since 1932.And Omega is located in Bienne,Switzerland.And that guy with the "dumb" accent is Swiss. But I guess now that we determined that Swiss have dumb English accents,that disqualifies his from the further discussion right? :)) I just love your comments.Cheers mate

[@allthatdance1]

thank you

[@pablogrijalva1581]

@graviteownage Sorry pal, but the pads have a sensor to determine first touch. Cavic saw he was ahead a made the mistake of thinking it was all over. Same thing happened to Biondi in Seoul when Anthony Nesty defeated him. Biondi just reached at the end same as Cavic while Nesty took and aditional stroke

[@davidfof13]

before these olympics phelps was nothing and now he's a legend

[@Joe99749]

What an incredible race. Lost in the shuffle was the fact that Crocker barely missed the bronze by one hundred of a second also.

[@eagleeye1989]

thank you :)

[@didouche555]

Michael Phelps is a legend. he is just amazing.

[@Giorgio_Romano]

Michael Phelps you are absolutely invencible!!!!

[@harvpila]

guys, when will be their next race?

[@pietrobond]

is incredible. many thanks.. I will raise some more. Bye

[@nedostizni2]

We are not arguing if he is better swimmer or not. Of course he is. Read my first topic once again. We are arguing whether he won or not. The video you are talking about has not official marks on it what so ever. It was uploaded by some regular youtube user, it is not a video from the official Olympic games timekeeping website. So it can be edited and altered any time, with no consequences. But the video I showed you is from the OFFICIAL OLYMPIC GAMES TIMEKEEPING DEVICE COMPANY. ...

[@apoman1996]

best race of all time

[@RicardoAntonioHinostrozaMoreno]

Amazing!

[@mariannegoju]

me too. i love phelps

[@mrericmada]

its the best! of the best !

[@jadelouiseflynn]

I knowwwww!!!! I'm so happy right now!

[@Pauli11ify]

GROSOOO geniooo

[@Dr.Shredz]

oh, thank you!

[@LukaVujasinovic]

Čavić haven't got luck. Čavić is number one!

[@virgiliooliveira2734]

Wow I love michael phelps.

[@gleekstogether]

In an interview with Anderson Cooper he was asked how he did it and when he looked at the freeze frame shot he said that because Cavic lifted his head up before he touched the wall he slowed himself down acting as a buffer to himself meaning phelps (who kept his head down) got that golden opportunity of a tiny portion of a second to pull into first because he was streamline...so if Cavic hadn't have lifted his head Michael Phelps would not have won that medal.

[@lovemanuginobili]

wow i am still fasinated! wow i couldnt help but jumping up when he won

[@justinvasquez7119]

your my idol

[@Roderick92]

ok, but where was he in beijing?

[@guillermoeduardo1000]

Mejor del mundo

[@Gynecologist]

with results that close, seems like if one sensor is not precisely (I mean to the micrometer) flush with the next one, it could affect the results of the race.

[@MuRdErDoLL90]

just love him.

[@andreaolavarria3353]

un genio

[@LoUrbanoHD]

es el mejor del mundo en natacion

[@gleekstogether]

But either way I love this man and I'm glad it went that way for him :) he's very worthy of it all :)

[@mahulchak]

You meant at summer Olympics; right? Because the world record in 50m fly is held by Mark Foster. Ofcourse there is no 50m fly in summer olympics.

[@XxSpartaxX]

oh ya mate..anytime.. oh in the 50.. Cavic SMOKES phelps..LOL and you can even see in this race here how Cav's first 50 was blazing!!!! I just can't imagine what was going thru Phelps mind at the 75 mark when he turned on his burners to come in.. that kid was digging deep! LOLOL cheers bro

[@ilCorri]

yeeeeeeeees phelps won vs cavic here in roma....the god of the swim

[@alexandraas6809]

Butterfly!!!Best styl

[@swimstud567]

i miss the olympics

[@kevn101]

not going to lie that race was REALLLYYY close like probably by 0.000001 seconds phelps won.. i would consider that a tie to be honest but phelps is a great athlete and definitely deserves a lot of praise i am swimmer myself so i know hard it is to even come close to phelps

[@ortodeu]

CAVIC VITORIC ESSE E O CAMPEÃO.

[@bailsdee1317]

but you see if you hit the touch pad harder, with more speed, your time will go in quicker than if you glide in, like cavic did. he might have touched first but maybe he just touched slightly, then a millisecond later, he REALLY touched hard, and only then his time goes through, when phelps has already gone through beacause of his hard finish :)

[@HamBurglerMan]

did he win?

[@EMU1111]

WOOOOW! what a legend

[@shihkahlua]

I was kinda disappointed that Ian didn't get to medal in this event. It left me wondering why he seemed slow during the Olympics. I hope he gets back to form come Worlds.

[@tannyshula87]

THE PERFECT MAAAAN!

[@86KARAT]

Майкл супер!

[@MrMuki001]

michael phelps king.long live the king

[@pepsiyoyo]

so is this the finals 2009

[@tevitasmiff]

Michael Phelps had water in his goggles when he dived in.

[@mc1703]

legend

[@ИльяБондарев-ф3ж]

Unbelievable!

[@hellishdragon6789]

Cant believe it! I think he almost lost but he still got the 1st place.

[@AndresKopo98]

ESO INDICA QUE PHELPS ES EL MEJORRRRRR!

[@XxSpartaxX]

matter of opinion.. i like to go based on what my eyes see in this video here.. yes he is an amazing swimmer, but as they say.. "on the day the best man wins." :) and on THIS day here, in this video, Phelps wins..and he walked away with history wrapped around his neck, which equals "best" to me :) can't top that. :) again..cavic.. badass swimmer.. not taking away from him

[@QEOKS]

michael should have a movie or something.. he is sickkk:)

[@1luisjorge]

at 5:12 is that Phelps touched with a hand ... therefore it is not even disqualification and would not reach the second look weel

[@howIronicle]

sorry for double tapping the L button because i type fast ya durp. lol your video url did not work so whatever plus you never said anything about the snapshot of phelps clearly touching first also if you look at the end of this video and in the snapshot you will see that cavic lifted his head right be4 he touched acting like a speed bump slowing him down so in this case it was cavics fault for losing this race because he made the mistake of lifting his head just short of the touch next comment..

[@gom1206]

omg that was amazing

[@ivan207100]

Cavic is 1 st!!!

[@ImagindeDash]

feel the passion

[@ProMidpig]

no they are just the best in the world!

[@howIronicle]

the pictures have been debunked bro no editing was ever used also you can even see in the slow mo that phelps won lol you seemed to ignore my comment about Cavic lifting his head hhhhmmmm i wonder why?

[@nuculearbazooka]

what a race...

[@azhleeyGaaxiola]

OMG!! Michael is the kinG! =) ^^

[@jonisginger]

"I've won one by 1/100th of a second myself but..." Classic commentary.

[@faaaduma]

probably. he is just too good:D

[@KCosta-fp4rt]

Phelps MONSTER!

[@XCILE625]

Ryan Pini

[@Naoufalitos24]

the race starts at 3:20

[@oibafox]

per far scattare il cronometro serve schiacciare con 1 certa pressione e cavic l'ha messa dopo phelps, michael ha ragione.

[@whateverdude789]

luck? screw luck! this guy is the greatest athlete the world has ever known!

[@fionatoridmfan]

I agree with you... Because Cavic is underwater you can't see him touch as fast when phelps swings his arms over right into the wall almost the same time but quicker!!!

[@RobawtRawk]

Best part of this video is the Americans cheering at the end... Hahaha

[@Kevsc21]

The Race starts at 3:22...

[@cTJesusN]

INSANE.

[@MrPeterjao]

This was in the 200 fly dude

[@ReuzeYT]

Phelps rocks

[@dubbersubber]

invincible.

[@Righti0]

LOL, 2:29. Takes T_T to a whole new level.
