I'm team USA. Nathan Adrian is a star - he was simply unbelievable. He finished the race like a champ vs rookies. Phelps is all time great my fav champion.

there was no freaking way Phelps teammates were going to let him down in this race and no way Phelps was not going to deliver....they all knew this race was going into the sports history books....way to go out on top Phelps!

I end up laughing every time I watch this video ... out of sheer joy. The brilliance of the American team ... and especially Nathan's finish is spectacular. Hope to see some of you swimming again at the next Olympics! With all good wishes, Ken W. A.

[@KenWAnderson]

I never tire of seeing this video, over and over again. So proud of you American guys.

[@jonaloin]

It was awesome for Japan to win Silver. Fantastic swim by Kitajima especially. I guess he was desperate to make up for his disappointment in the individual events. I think he swam his leg like 0.5s faster than Hansen. Great way to go out.

Track and field, speed skating, and track cycling are all organized the same exact way as swimming. Each distance event gets it's own gold medal. Completely fair, as each event is catered to a different type of athlete (sprinters, distance, etc). Phelps is just that good that he can race different distances and still win.

[@cindyb5230]

I'm just under 5'2 and the torsos alone of these swimmers are as tall as my entire height! They also have some muscular necks as well. Their workouts outside of the pool must be insane. BTW, I love the bright green shoes the US team is sporting.Waiting for Rio 2016!!!

[@uujgioogii7881]

wow nathan adrian's split 46.85

[@MickChickenn]

Because he is a great swimmer. His technical skills have been perfected, his explosive strength is incredible (nearly the whole race was pullouts and gliding). He works hard with a great coach. That's how he went that time.

[@wwall5478]

[@katiebrady12]

Explode off the blocks throwing your hands out in front of your eyes, and point your toes. When your feet leave the blocks, keep your hands down towards the water, and arch your back in a way that pushes your chest forward (this causes that arch in the lower back). As you approach the water, mid-air, your arms will naturally move back up into the streamline position, and have your body follow your hands. It takes a lot of practice, but it's an extremely powerful way to dive.
