UNDER ARMOUR | RULE YOURSELF | MICHAEL PHELPS

[@roger72715]

When u intentionally search for a commercial to watch on KZbin then u know they made something special.

[@aadityabhattacharya1631]

Yep couldn't agree more!

[@heykala9131]

Absolutely!💯

[@_lisan_al_gaib]

everyone should watch the nascar budweiser commercial for dale jr too

[@zizwajamesmauluka8742]

Literally what I just did😭

[@otheri9000]

2024, and I'm still searching for this vid for motivation

[@MedScratch]

This has gotta be one of the best commercials I’ve ever seen.

[@zakwerdegar3754]

Jesus I know right! This commercial was a cinematic art piece.

[@nurashidnoormohamad3572]

Agree

[@justcallmeq8120]

Agreed you should see Budweisers for Dale Jr

[@AMilo-qm4ed]

you got that right, seeing this today for the first time....i got teary eyed by the end...and love that line, "It's what you do in the dark, that puts you in the light." wow. Award winning commercial right there .

[@mikek545]

Under Armour | Rule Yourself is pretty amazing as well

[@kmdsubs3148]

Sometimes commercials are works of art.

[@shilohsums3061]

I'm a swimmer myself and when I saw this I literally cried because for most swimmers growing up he is your idol

[@diro3745]

And for the non-swimmers he's also an idol, I was a kid's swimmer, but afterwards I dedicated myself to the MTB downhill, and he's still my inspiration.

[@chillzonemaster4553]

Full agreement, he inspires me to push on whenever it gets tough in the water and out.

[@Brickwall7653]

Cried? relax

[@dedelms]

as an athlete in general michael was the greatest inspiration for everybody, many people say beijing was his greatest gig, but for me RIO 2016 proved that he was the greatest of all time.......in any sport

[@vikramkoppikar4677]

Yup. Same here

[@rotsu2108]

This can really pass as a trailer for a Michael Phelps biopic.

[@upwardnorth]

I tend to come back to this every couple of years after hearing this song. Man, this is so freaking good.

[@samelgore7575]

This ad should be a contender for "the best Ad Ever".. It should be taught in "Ad Making Schools" as how to make an ad that leaves a lasting impression. In my case it gave me chills and rush to put on my UA gear.

[@jackpo1030]

Can't say better. Totally agree

[@VegitotheUlitmatesaiyan]

That just means you're a sheep

[@sj19991]

[@markus9543]

Its actually being taught in marketing schools right now :)

[@ololo9724]

I keep thinking about this about after I watch it

[@carlosrincones5560]

This commercial has more substance than most mainstream films now days. Beautiful.

[@raphaelverde4571]

also more substance than the drugs

[@zakwerdegar3754]

The "rule yourself" at the end gave me chills

[@ashuzguitar]

I will \/,

[@agda11]

It is what you do in the dark that puts you in the light True

[@jamielogan7906]

I think about this commercial A LOT. After every run, every time I push myself. So powerful.

[@lukefonseca7790]

Same :)

[@Dayron97]

I come back to watch this ad atleast 5 days every week, sometimes multiple times a day. It's often the first thing I see in the morning, and reminds me of the importance of doing the monotonous tasks, every single day. This tradition is only 4,5 month old and will likely live for a very long time. Rule Yourself.

[@michaelmiddleton2413]

Lol chill

[@arthurbax3477]

You still doing this G?

[@danielshils3475]

I’ve been watching this since it came out, why am I still here?

[@harryh.1704]

Back when I swam I used to watch this before every Championship meet. I still get chills every time.

[@stormy4358]

So much goes into sports than the average person realizes. Straight dedication

[@griffin__sutek4958]

1:00 highly underrated shot and I would argue the most important in the entire commercial. We see his coach and (I would assume) his friends/family/audience through the water or through the lens of what his life is built around. Very powerful, especially if you’re in the sport and realize the effect it has on your social/personal life

[@peterplot2931]

OMG that's what I thought when I watched this! …

[@peterplot2931]

also the choice of music is such a perfect fit. Idk exactly what it is but the first part obviously sounds similar to the kind of acoustic filter that you have under water

[@rccullen16]

Its not underrated my friend, most people recognize this as the most introspective shot of the entire commercial. lol

[@charlesf.3787]

His scene looking at the pool full of leaves is also very impactful!

[@ducky1951]

I personally feel that the shot after it is more important, we see him drowning in the work he has done. he cant possibly stand to keep bottling up all his pain, and cant take the constant routine of training 3 times a day every day for 6 years.

[@kg8063]

Not just the best swimmer of all time, but a good human being. And not full of himself like so many others. Love you Michael!

[@ivanmichaels7518]

People don’t see the sacrifice, and for him it was more immense than most people can even imagine

[@JasonMcGhan]

this will forever be a favorite ad for me. i've come to this so many times.

[@joshtheman429]

The shot of Michael just standing and looking at the pool with leaves👌

[@deetanzi]

Phelps is by far the greatest swimmer of all time

[@mertagaoglu5284]

i was the weakest kid in my swimming club...Till i met him,my idol.He didn't just show me how to be good at swimming, he showed me hardwork, discipline, passion and most of all, love.. We will always love you michael, even if ur retired...I watched this commercial in 2016 when i was a kid, but now im the best swimmer in my city because of him...

[@antonioh.velasque8864]

Now you have to go to the World Swimming Championships, Singapore 2025

[@NestorMaravi]

One of the most powerful commercials I have ever seen. The 🐐 of swimming Ladies & Gentlemen.

[@amandasmith8932]

Does anyone else use this commercial as motivation to go to the gym?

[@luisnathan3278]

Me amanda have darkest moments years ago, and now that i know it that is my last chance to compete in some kind of high level basketball tournament because of my age. For the last three months i push myself so harder like never before, and see this video before training because that's it is the last time no regrets

This remains one of the best ads out there.

[@BossFinale]

Blood, sweat, and tears. I keep coming back to watch every couple of months. Majestic.

[@menopausemavericksX]

Just wow. So happy to see the awe in the comments for this truly special commercial.

[@trixefirehorse]

was just thinking of this ad and came back to re-watch. it still holds up. still incredible.

[@apaladinoflight305]

The music, the raw emotion displayed by Michael and his determination to succeed, all collide to create this short but impactful piece of audiovisual art; this ad definitely highlights the importance of hard work and discipline

[@sorry_not_sorry6410]

This is so strong. Watching this each time I feel weak or tired during study in medical school

[@tommypaul6654]

I swear im doing the same thing

[@BL-gt5cp]

This is beyond any comparison with other ads. The choice of shots, music, deep meaning that goes beyond one sport but rather pertains to life philosophy, causes chills, watery eyes and captures that spirit you want to embrace. Really makes you want to have UA gear. Ad making level World Champion.

[@funkyed985]

powerful commercial when you consider Phelp's personal troubles, and the incredible volume of work it takes over a lifetime to win even one Olympic or World swim medal.

[@JayJayMiraculum]

I saw this once when it came out and I still remember the brand, the song and the message. This one has had more impact on me than most other things I ever saw.

[@kidproduction6720]

One of The greatest athletes of all time

[@Storm-kq4hb]

the greatest swimmer thats for sure

[@KBrown2345]

If we were to compare Michael’s achievements with Usain Bolt’s for instance, it’d be like Bolt winning Olympic gold in 100, 200, 400, 800 and 1500. A tough question though - who’s the greatest athlete of all time… Steve Redgrave / Michael Jordan / Eddie Merckx / Mat Fraser / Tia-Clair Toomey. Who knows!

[@Jugyimus]

The best ad ever. Point blank period. Gives me goosebumps and shivers down my spine every damn time!

The best thing about sports is that it's never just about talent. When it comes down to it, it's about who wants to win more, who stays up the latest, who was the first to the practice sessions, who never gives up, who keeps on going, who loves the sport most to sacrifice everything.
