That is insane speed.  |
Phelps is just in an entirely different league. I hope he stays healthy (and motivated) for the 2008 games in Beijing, because I fully believe he can break Spitz' record for most gold medals in a single Olympics.
Edit: and for those of you who may not be aware, that time posted by Phelps was indeed in LCM competition.
