I love Tom, but I would have to vote for Greg Louganis as the GOAT. He won medals in 3 different Olympics (4 gold, 1 silver) as well as 5 World Championships (3 for platform and 2 for springboard).

[@heyheyo0o]

I remember staying up until 4am or something to watch the dives. Was an incredible moment to see him get gold!

[@kalea.b06-39]

Love the story but the way it was narrated was really strange with the low shots of the narrator sitting and then weird cuts to just frames of the narrator. Just gave it a weird vibe.

[@orangew3988]

Seriously. I kinda expected to see the Chinese dives and the British, against each other. Build up the tension like on the day. But you didn't get clear views of most of the dives.

[@jamespayne80]

Watching this as it happened was an amazing feeling. I was totally rooting for his team to win. So very happy it happened like that!

[@joaott1974]

Anoying the forever prhase..."wait for it!"

[@keith2o9]

Of Course, Tom is a great Diver. But the media make it seems like it's all about him. The only person who made it. Synchro Gold in Tokyo and Synchro Bronze in Rio. But none of his partners were praised. He may have won the Gold, but it wasn't in the individual event. but like i said, the media made it all about him. Great Diver but no individual. The only reason why people are praising Tom Daley because of his looks.

[@rosepetal34]

The mans a double individual world champion / the only British person to ever win a world title, and yea they were matty went on a tv show because of it / he has so many more Instagram followers etc than other Olympians because of tom, also yes matty is amazing but Toms individual scores were what won them that gold medal

[@frankli3802]

I agree. Especially Cao Yuan is an extraordinarily talented diver, wining gold medals in 3 disciplines and silver in the 4th discipline. I think when he competes in London, Rio and Tokyo, the worst result is silver medal.

[@pedropelaez]

Greatest of all time without ever winning an individual Olympic gold? I think Greg Louganis with 4 Olympic golds (2 each In Platform and springboard) and 5 world championship golds (3 platform and 2 springboard) would HIGHLY disagree. I think even DiBiasi with 3 Olympic and 2 world championship golds would disagree. 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[@rosepetal34]

Tom has 3 world champion golds/ 2 of them individual and he might not be the greatest of all time/ he’s never said he is but he’s still a phenomenal talent / considering China won 7 out of the 8 gold medals last Olympics him and mattys synchro gold is an incredible achievement
