"You don't have to be a lawyer, a doctor or a successful businessman; there's success outside of those medium". More parents and people need to realise that.
I can understand. But, I feel it's not just limited to Singapore. Thing's the same in India (where I am from) and many other countries as well, I reckon.
Watching this July of 2021. It still made me emotional, and I am not even Singaporean. So happy for Singapore and my Singaporean friends who were so proud about this. Congratulations Joseph Schooling and congratulations Singapore!
As a Singaporean, I can remember very clearly the morning Joseph Schooling took the podium at the Olympics finals. My whole family was up, all my neighbours were up, and when he came in first, I could hear everyone around me cheering. It was such a surreal moment for the country and I have never felt more proud to be Singaporean than when I heard our national anthem being played for the first time in history. May more children be inspired by Joseph Schooling and may this be the start of something special in this tiny nation!
The part about our national anthem being played at the Olympics for the first time. I got goosebumps watching that live on tv, it felt surreal. It's probably the last thing we'd expect to happen before Joseph made history. Thank you Joe! Good luck for Tokyo 2020!
Why do people feel so attached for national anthems and olympics; I mean they dont represent anything. The only thing the Olympics do is bankrupt countries and divert focus from the important things a country should feel proud...
"Not every parent can afford this kind of thing. I sacrificed my business. But that's my choice, It was nobody else's choice. I don't want to be the richest man in the cemetery. We only have one son" That broke me. I lost my dad after he fell ill suddenly, almost 8 years ago, and listening to his dad, seeing him record his son's journey, seeing him wearing the longhorn shirt; man it got to me. The unconditional love and support to its fullest extent from his parents, but specially his dad, reminded me of mine. Schooling, you are set for life with those two by your side with whatever you decide to do next, whether it involves swimming or not. You're one lucky young man. Dad, I miss you dearly every single day and will for the rest of my life.
I lost my grandmother 5 yr back.....when I used to come home from my school or from my college.....she used to make my favourite dishes...I alwaz used to ask....u r so old why u take all tht pain .....our maid can do it....she smiles touches my face and replies ..u talk too much ...just eat and let me too. I lost her bcoz of heart condition.....being a doctor myself I can't save her......she used to say ....once u become a doctor better treat me well......coz I don't want to die before Ur marriage. She died in my arms.........she said I can't take it any more..the pain is too much.....i said don't worry everything will be ok...I'm with u. Just a few gasps nd she passed. I want to tell u mama....I regret tht I couldn't save u....i will alwaz miss Ur waiting eyes from the balcony....nd the loneliness u left... but in my heart will alwaz remain Ur unconditional love nd memory.
+maria franco I’m sorry for your loss, what a great story you shared! Your father will always remember you, even though he can’t be around right now. Best wishes to you
Winning an Olympic gold medal is great. Repeating the same feat again 4 years later will be brilliant. However, the odds are stacked highly against him. To me, it’s not the gold medal that made him truly famous. He will be renowned for the only person who defeated Michael Phelps in his last Olympics
I for one disagree. I think you're forgetting that not only did he break the Olympic records, he's 22, he's still got some time to improve. I believe he could continue to have success for more years and maybe bag another Gold.
WheeeTimmy yeah he does have a chance but if you’ve ever swam you know how insurmountable those odds are. Swimming is way to hard to catch back up so to speak. Dressel will outshine him and some young foreigners like Milak will edge him out slowly
Ethan Rushing that’s what I meant when I said the odds are stacked against him. Precisely so you will understand this a lot better if you are a competitive swimmer.
I met this man at the airport after the NCAA champs last week. Took a pic with me even though he was with a friend. Truly an inspiration for me. In a few years, CNN and NBC are going to have the picture of us alongside me on the podium. I will not fail you schooling!
Whoah the entire country stp every activity just to support this young man and he won! Entire country's energy was behind pushing him to victory. I'm crying! All the best young man
JoeTheCuber Cubing no...Phelps is on another level...noone will be like him...never...so many times we said that Phelps couldnt do it and he was there proving us wrong
Coming from a small country not known for sport events, but beating the greatest of the greatest... Wow! That's such an achievement. Hats off to Joseph for being an inspiration for his home country! Congratulations! 👍😉😀
a proud singaporean here! i still remember that time when literally EVERYONE in the country stopped to watch him on the tv. i was in a competition during that time though, and after that my teammates were all crowding around my teacher and she was showing us that he had won gold. ah the memories! :)
This was huge I remember it very clear because our prime minister and our Vice President both sent officials congratulations letter to Singapore 🇸🇬 and it was all over the local news
Watching this in August of 2021 as a singaporean, just saying that I’ll forever be proud of him, no matter what. He brought huge glory to our nation and that will be in our hearts forever ❤️
The moment when Schooling touched the wall... the atmosphere in Singapore was terrific. You can hear cheering and screaming all over the island and it's simply awesome!!!
i vividly remember how i was stuck in class when i received a notification on my phone that Schooling was about to race in the finals; i excused myself to go to the toilet to watch him win it and i probably came back to class looking like i came back from disneyland
all the goosebumps felt when the national anthem was played for the first time...couldn't control it. it's when your heart is so full of pride for Schooling, for his achievements, his dedication, for this tiny island nation, where finally, finally, changes are made to the sporting scene, it feels like my heart would burst. what a time to be alive.
I remember seeing a news notification pre-race from the local news company on my phone, encourage people to support him. Funny enough, 3 minutes later, I saw another notification, stating that he won, totally not expecting that. Maybe it was perhaps he won my home country’s first gold medal, but this moment really helped me escape the depression I was suffering at the time. Even though I am not Singaporean myself and practice a whole different sport, Schooling still is a pretty big inspiration for me and for that moment in the Rio Olympics, I’d just like to say thanks Schooling for being such a inspirational guy, for just one small moment that changed a country! ❤️
High King Mala II Anything that will help someone out of depression (Winston Churchill fittingly called it “the black dog”), I’m ALL FOR!!! And in this case, something so wonderful!
I am a Filipino that's been to this tiny country called Singapore, and as a fellow Southeast Asian, I'm proud of this guy, too..To achieved this kind of athleticism, and beating the greatest swimmer ever (Michael Phelps) is way beyond amazing, it's just unimaginable ! Good luck on your goals in Tokyo 2020, Joe ! Go smoke them all !
Im not a Singaporean but OMG im crying watching this. The thing abt the national anthem played for the first time in Olympic...how the whole nation cheering for him...truly heart touching moment to see 💕
All respect to Schooling for beating that field so soundly, but Phelps, Cseh and Le Clos all TYING still strikes me as the single most unlikely coincidence I've ever seen at the Olympics.
The touch pads were funny that year. I remember it clearly, noticing at the time that things looked a bit odd. There were several occasions where swimmers tied for a placing. That simply doesn't happen if things are in order with the electronics.
I just love his dedication.... Many countries are out there who were not very much in Olympics or sports at all. But I love how everyone is getting aware of a lot of games 🤗
Hi Joseph I don't know if you remember me but there was this one time I was watching one of your practices and I was like "why can't anybody beat Joseph and now why you have been my inspiration the past year. I haven't been making my time cuts and watching this made me realize that anything is possible. Thank you, Ella The one you thought was 8 because I was short.
The intro and outro are at my pool! I was so confused when I started the video haha. Amazing to see a legend at the same place I was just earlier today.
I remember watching that race with a friend and I remembered when his name was being called, my friend and I looked at eachother and were jokingly like "Schooling? He's gonna school this race!" not really thinking much of it. But then he actually flew by and won and our jaws just dropped.
relieving this moment as if it were yesterday, but we got to remember, just the fact that our athletes represent us in such a legendary sporting event is a big deal in itself :") let's never forget when joseph won this medal for us singaporeans years ago.
“The brick walls are there for a reason. The brick walls are not there to keep us out. The brick walls are there to give us a chance to show how badly we want something. Because the brick walls are there to stop the people who don’t want it badly enough. They’re there to stop the other people.” ~Randy Pausch~
I don't care who you are. The Rio 2016 100m Butterfly Final is one the best swimming races in history. I was cheering on my fellow Hungarian, Cseh Lászlo! No one would have predicted a little Singaporean would be the top three best swimmers in the sport! Absolutely fantastic! Good luck Schooling!
Oh man, I remember watching this live. A triple silver metal and an amazing gold medal. Got shocked when I watched Joseph but so excited for him afterwards. He has a great future ahead, I hope he competes in Tokyo 2020.
When his team mate mentioned how amazing a gold medal is for a young country, I automatically thought of Mr Tan Howe Liang, who bagged a silver medal way back in 1960...even before independence.
Yes! As a young kid of ten, I remember how proud I was. Then Bernard Chan came 5th in the finals of the 200m Butterfly in Tokyo 1964. Later he was my boss for awhile in the advertising industry. He still had that Olympic drive to succeed and always inspired me to do the same.
He's gonna beat the World Record in 2020. Mark this comment. Edit: Pandemic really fcked up everything right? Well, see you all in 2021 Tokyo Olympics. Hopefully this time, 2021 is not a climax of what 2020 has been.
Yeah, I mean what happened to Schooling? Did he fall off his pace this year or what? Or is Dressel just too good that he makes everyone else look slow?
I was a lot into swimming as a kid but as an Indian we know sports, except cricket has no future.. My parents were very supportive at all times and never forced me to take any decision.. some of the things Schooling's parents said to him my dad has said to me. Being just a tad bit younger than him, I guess it's your choices, your determination and your hard work that gets you places. Now I will be a doctor in another year, so not bad.. To be someone people look up to, give inspiration to the next generation, you gotta strive for excellence.. People don't give swimming it's due credit idk why maybe it's not endorsed by big brands or it's not covered throughout the year.. but any one who knows about competitive swimming knows the amount of dedication it requires, and I'm not saying this just like that.. I know what hard work means.. I took a career in medicine so you can count on it lol.. When I first saw this race it gave me goosebumps and the way he celebrated was awesome.. I googled about him and this video made me write some things about myself too.. but it's all about him! U know, you can never enjoy the destination if u haven't been through the process.. it takes time but eventually u'll get there! Just, DON'T GIVE UP! All the best to everyone in their lives! God bless Singapore :D
Rahim Dina here in India it's mostly cricket which is a good career option.. no other sport is given its credit:( sad but true although hockey is our national game
Daksh Singhal come out of your well. Look around and you will see that Indians love other sports too. Only the idiot North Indians loves cricket( excluding Haryana and Punjab ). Also, Hockey is not the national sport. You learnt nothing in school.
Daksh Singhal ** it’s the national game of Pakistan! The Sports Community over there hasn’t ever announced about it being the natural game just that India has been successful in it.
Just incredible Joseph for you are truly an inspiration to everyone . Goes to show you dreams come true if you work hard and have great Coaches and very supportive parents
As a Singaporean I’m so proud of Joseph schooling’s gold win, but honestly after the Olympics he became so much more arrogant. Well considering how much media coverage he has been given, it’s not surprising how cocky he became.

Schooling has Olympic parents. Talent & dedication are essential, but this kind of parental support is priceless.
100% true and agreed 👍
100% agree.
frrrr his parents are amazing
especially that of Asian parents
Genetics too
"You don't have to be a lawyer, a doctor or a successful businessman; there's success outside of those medium". More parents and people need to realise that.
I can understand. But, I feel it's not just limited to Singapore. Thing's the same in India (where I am from) and many other countries as well, I reckon.
Cannot agree more...from an Indian

If you like what you do and can accomplish your goals I'd consider you pretty successful already
Lmao imagine if Joseph just became a stereotypical lawyer or a doctor compared to one of the best swimmers in the sport. What a waste of potential.

People don't give swimming it's due credit idk why maybe it's not endorsed by big brands or it's not covered throughout the year.. but any one who knows about competitive swimming knows the amount of dedication it requires, and I'm not saying this just like that.. I know what hard work means.. I took a career in medicine so you can count on it lol.. When I first saw this race it gave me goosebumps and the way he celebrated was awesome.. I googled about him and this video made me write some things about myself too.. but it's all about him! U know, you can never enjoy the destination if u haven't been through the process.. it takes time but eventually u'll get there! Just, DON'T GIVE UP! All the best to everyone in their lives! God bless Singapore :D
Daksh Singhal what about hockey?
Rahim Dina here in India it's mostly cricket which is a good career option.. no other sport is given its credit:( sad but true although hockey is our national game
Daksh Singhal come out of your well. Look around and you will see that Indians love other sports too. Only the idiot North Indians loves cricket( excluding Haryana and Punjab ). Also, Hockey is not the national sport. You learnt nothing in school.
Daksh Singhal ** it’s the national game of Pakistan! The Sports Community over there hasn’t ever announced about it being the natural game just that India has been successful in it.
*national

‘I don’t want to be the richest man in the cemetery.’ Great epigram !
Just incredible Joseph for you are truly an inspiration to everyone . Goes to show you dreams come true if you work hard and have great Coaches and very supportive parents
As a Singaporean I’m so proud of Joseph schooling’s gold win, but honestly after the Olympics he became so much more arrogant. Well considering how much media coverage he has been given, it’s not surprising how cocky he became.
Now THAT, is a sporting Hero. Bravo JS.
A WR and his coach says he's no where near as fast as he could go..... I see
Those parents are goal! What a great story! LOVE this
