Michael Phelps, what a human he is. The things he has done in swimming... he was the best at it probably the greatest that one can be in swimming. Respect for this man.
I know he's cool and everything but isn't it lame to be a sportsman to be famous? Who apart from Jordan is just as recognizable as like singer or actor?
GURken I don’t understand the question/premise? Being a top athlete is magnitudes harder than being an actor. Being famous for something that takes decades of work is (relatively) well-earned.
I mean that career of a sportsman isn't that efficient compare to pop culture if your main target is to be famous. You choose a sport that is remembered once in a four years, you give your youth and health to achieve great success just to be recognizable. And even that may not work. I thought that people choose sport to prove something to themselves.

"But I wasn't focusing on winning, I was focusing on preparing myself".
Me: That's the key to success.
He's showing off his sockless ankles too much for my liking.
I knew I didn't have to write that thought. TY
When you're so tall your pants come up your ankles when you sit down . lol I can relate. 😆
This guy is an absolute gentleman. Respect
Presenting a scowling face, constantly, to your neighbors in Baltimore, is a great way to brand.
Great questions from the interviewer. Gj
Wow, one of greatest video on RUclips. Thanks for the upload.
3:01 we all look up to someone
Thanks
Be happy, you deserve happiness, you are a wonderful person. all you achieved in your life was through pain.
God bless Michael
Thank you and god bless WSJ
Those pants... dislike
What a helpful video! Even if you're not a fan of this great man
Phelps phelps phelp..!
Visualisation is another way of saying “day dreaming”. Lol
first ? why tf am i watching this on the trading desk?
conserving water after polluting water with chemicals before swimming in it?
Building a brand and being a national figure includes not being a pot head.
He could really advertise roor
Powerful.
The hottest man
Phelps is a knob!!!
Is this a joke? He's more famous for smoking weed than swimming. Wsj is not serious.
Go to sleep
short socks/no socks is a bold and in his case bad fashion choice, trying too hard to look cool
Totally agree. He doesn't look comfortable crossing his legs either.
Phelps has no personality no public charm . What a way to brand.
Wow 2nd

Yeah but if you're genetics suck at singing or acting and they're built for swimming then you're forced down that path
Also being famous is the easiest job in the world. Literally. The easiest. You get paid to exist.
