Comment down below who is better in underwaters than Phelps.
caeleb dressel?
Kris Humphries
Dressel
dressel of course
Marc Somadjaja dressel is dead
"dolphin kicks" are so beautiful to watch !!!!
check finswimming dude
Yeah but the butterfly stroke is SO HARD
Fax
You mean doping kicks 😏😂
Beautiful to watch,but tough to do 😂
Those underwater shots are so good holy shit
Ανένδοτος hol up
@Ανένδοτος **jazz music stops**
oh yeah nahui
Like fr
Awh feeehhhccckkkk 😩
I swam for 12 years, made it to nationals....and i am sitting here, gobsmacked at how elegant and effortless he makes it look !!
I wish I could do that but I’m always out of breath
Increase your stamina, I faced the same issue. But now I started doing 3-4km runs twice a week. I dont face the issue now
Damn me too my arms get tired too early slowing me down
you can icrease breath rate when getting near the wall
Dark Slayer that is the worst advice I’ve ever heard.
Dark Slayer approved
The best underwater I ever saw him do was his final turn in the 400m Medley at Beijing. At least 8 metres under water before he came up for a breath - at the end of a freakin' 400 medley, smashing the WR by about 2 seconds. The guy has gills.
he moves like a fish too under water, how can u do this body movement, so sick
HONKY! CORRECT! THE! BALTIMORE! BULLET! (BB)! HONKY! HA! HA! HA!
Marchand took inspiration :)
I'm guessing he is fish with a shape of human.
He's actually the real aquaman
More like dolphin, they are both mammals
@Juju Schrader i believe his body form happen because of intense swimming from young age.
He mimics 🐬
He is human in the shape of a fish
The one 'mechanical' thing that stands out to me with Michael Phelps coming off the wall is how deep he is compared to the other swimmers. I had just learned about 'getting under the backwash' which is the stream/flow of water that follows you into the wall from my swim coach, and then saw Phelps win one of his medals where he went into the wall maybe a half body length behind who ever was next to him, and he came up a body length in front. In the interview after, he commented about how he was able to get down under the backwash. This is not mentioned, covered or explained, in any flip turn video I have ever seen.
Good point, I swam competitively in high school and I never thought about that but it makes sense.
Wow!
It makes total sense.
I got back to swimming after a long time and now I can really see how much physics there is in it.
Third law, how much you can push behind you is equal to how much you are going foward
First law, how much you can maintain. I remember in a few classes in college teacher told me to hold up longer to the speed of my jump and not straight up swim, since swimming right away only causes friction that actually de-acelerates your jump/speed. Only that tip helped in like, whole seconds.
And now this one. I was getting back and experimenting the turns swimming in my back and I was noticing being a little below the surface was feeling more hydrodynamic...
And it makes so much sense, the current that is following you is holding you back. You have the whole pool for yourself, you should use it to your advantage.
Thanks so much for the tip and explanation!!
Derek maas covers that in his flip turn video
@@annal3870 Recently discovered Derek. Like him.
I also wonder if starting deep allows him to take advantage of his buoyancy in order to gain extra velocity swimming slightly "up"? He would also technically have to cover more ground...but maybe the tradeoff is worth it, or maybe the swimming up using buoyancy theory I just came up with pales in comparison to the backwash theory you mentioned...?
I almost drowned watching this. It's crazy how good these guys are!
Great comment. Love it!
Lmao the way he wiggles underwater
Its because we use the Dolphin Kick (Butterfly) 3 times underwater
lmao
I like how you call it wiggling
It’s called butterfly kick
all of you guys got r/woooshed
His form in the water is so beautiful, you forget how insanely difficult the things he's doing are.
I love watching them take each stroke and just gliding through the water so smoothly and for some reason that calms me😂
Kate Walsh ikr like in swim practice when u watch the older kids do their stuff :o
What a stupid fucking comment
@@dad_bot_3924 bro y u spreading negativity man c'mon
Why am I even here, I can't swim.
You don't have to
Envy
@@tinaloye2014 no
Dad _Bot_ no, I mean envy like us non swimmers feel when seeing phelps. You wanna be in the water like him but that won't happen cause we cant swim.
@@tinaloye2014 that's why I said no
Mans really caught up to (and passed) world class sprinters underwater
No
Dumbass
@@dad_bot_3924 no u cause you commented twice
@@benjyyy4168 no
@@benjyyy4168 dumbass
Greatest swimmer of all time undoubtedly... My inspiration.. Next Olympic will really miss you Michael 😢❤️
Only Michael Phells can make swimming that exciting! He made those announcers sound like MMA anouncers on the 2nd one!
Actually I am also a swimmer who won the provisional medalist. I learned so many tips by watching Michael Phelps videos. He is the greatest swimmer ever
Everybody looks at the swimmers but nobody realizes that the camera man is way ahead of them
cemeraman whTTT
@@jinkianlee english is not my first language
@@fabricioE457 no man .. i was saying that there is no cameraman underneath the pool itself
@@jinkianlee ok bro, my bad
@@jinkianlee It was a joke?
I love/hate swimming I love the feeling when your swimming as fast as you can and you win milliseconds before someone but I hate the feeling you get when you taking your start knowing that it’s going to beep and your heart is just beating out of your chest
Bro you said it.... Its moments like those I felt like my heart is gonna come out
I dare someone to mention someone better than Michael Phelps in terms of an underwater swim lmao, I mean his technique is on another level
Dressel but yeah Phelps is ridiculous
Dressel
Phelps has all that double-jointedness in his knees. Gives an exaggerated range of motion that's physically impossible for almost all human beings.
Ian Crocker
Ryan lochte...
"What a big turn! What a big turn!" I've been searching for that clip forever. It was posted on Twitter briefly, then disappeared behind a paywall I guess. Thanks for posting.

Thanks
Give this guy a medal
Brian Shaw's old intro?!
Thanks
Thanks man I was looking all over for this
This guy looks like a really good swimmer he should go to the olympics
Bruh
@@justineray4441 r/woooosh
Underwater swimming must have Ryan Lochte also. Crazily powerful dolphin kicks and very smart swimming techniques.
For Phelps, I would put:
1/ 400m Medley Olympic trials 2008 the last leg.
2/ 200m Free Melborne 2007
3/ the 1st one in the clip
But Phelps is ok my idol
An incredible talent at underwaters! UNREAL!!
In the comming years this is how swimming will evolve. People will swim underwater the maximum 15 meters each and every turn.
They already done it, watch how dolphin kick became popular
It was so much more awesome before they put the 15 meter rule in. Dudes were going 30-35m underwater the first two turns.
@@fhsh2opolo9 might as well remove it and make another race for only dolphin kick.
@@fhsh2opolo9 It wasn't awesome at all. The event use to loose its meaning altogether
My friend is like Micheal Phelps. During a medley, she was swimming backstroke and everyone else popped up at 7-8 meters while she popped up at 14 meters and almost got us disqualified! She risked it so much! At least we won the relay thanks to her.
That's so cool 🔥
Sunny Xu 14?
FrostRamen yes 14, thanks
I remember watching that last one live. It was wild!
Michael Phelps developed his own style. He trained endlessly. And it proved him to be the best dimming athlete ever in our Olympics.
I just recently won a bronze medal for 400yd relay.
Ive never been so happy before, i wish i could be as good as phelps someday
Edit: for my highschool championship btw.
Congrats. You will, just train harder and enjoy every practice.
Congratulations Goated777
Great turn and underwater this shows how important it is to work on them which most of the young swimmers tend to ignore
La técnica de Phelps es extraordinaria.
Por eso es el mejor del la historia.
wow a great champion michael phelps
Every swimmer is a gangsta till they got foot cramp in the middle of the pool
Foot cramp ain't shit compared to a calf cramp in the middle of the pool 😬
This man is just at another level💯
Phelps is the GOAT end of! That second turn.... another level
Micheal Phelps is a LEGEND
MP is immortal
Essa virada olímpica dele é surreal, de outro mundo
The way he does his turns and he doesn't even breathe most of the time he has strong endurance and lungs damn
Greatest swimmer of all time.
Greatest Olympian of all time.
Easy argument for Greatest Athlete of All time.
Incredible, he is my Idol !
PS: Nice Video and nice greetings from Germany!
Honorable mention. The olympic trials 400 meter IM last wall 2008 verses Ryan Lochte. That for sure should have been on this list.
The pool will never be the same again
So long,pheleps
As someone who does not swim competitively and has not even watched swimming for that matter I can still say that this video was very exciting
How must it feel to propel your body in water at such a great pace 🔥
Permission to use this video for my online demo teaching. Thank you and Gob Bless !!!!
I am unable to identify Mr Phelps!!!
😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Epic video. It's a very unique feeling to dig deeper than ever before and find something you didnt know was there.
I got goosebumps watching this
That intro clip kinda scared me a little it looked really threatening 😂
The best underwater I ever saw it's for Ian Thorpe he is kicking is unbelievable he just make it so easy and smooth
I think phelps vs Peter van den hoogenband (?) 200 freestyle at, I think Athens?, is a great one. VDH would pull ahead on the swim each length, but phelps would overtake him on each turn underwater. Until the final turn where phelps just switched it up another gear and popped out a good distance in front. Pieter had no answer and I think was a bit gobsmacked when interviewed after the race. Phelps is a legend.
Number one is amazing!! I wish that someday I will meet he
"what a big turn what a big turn by michael phelps" was so dope
Tumble turns really have that power to turn tables. Aw I miss swimming 😅
I guess that *turned* out better than he thought 👀
You should have included the last turn on 400 IM Melbourne 2007 World Champs...I cried watching it.
The 1.6k dislikes are all from Chad Le Clos, Milorad Cavic, and Ian Crocker alt accounts😂
RUclips: you wanna watch somebody swim like a dolphin?
Me: sure
if u look closely at his lead off in the 4x100 free relay in Beijing 2008, his turn at the 50m mark helped him to get from 7th to like 3rd position......it should've been in this video too.
Yeah I like that too but In my view these are the top 3. you should also check out the 4x100 free pan pacs 2014. He was 6th or 7th at the turn and came back 1st.
SwimStrength he’s just a legend whose legacy can not be equaled!
Such a genius sportsperosn of all time...he's just incomparable🙏❤️😎🔥!
IDC WHAT ANYONE SAYS HES THE GOAT
Michael Phelps his wonderful swimming racer in lifetime Olympic swimming contest
This is how my coaches expect me to swim in training
Butterfly stroke is his specialty....... So his underwater push is such a blast
Michael Phelps is key proof that advantage in elite sport is almost entirely genetic. He was born to swim.
A white 6 foot 4 inches man with that back and arms is definitely build for swimming.
The best video is number 2. Awesome dolphin kick
If it was impossible, he couldn’t have done it.
😂
Yeah my thoughts too. I don't understand the use impossible and then show some one doing it.
It is like people have no knowledge what impossible means.
@@takoja507 its called exaggeration
@@vanillatae9156 Well it's idiotic way to say it...say nearly impossible or almost impossible or only few people can do it etc.
I think the word theyre looking for is improbable
And that’s why ladies and gentlemen why your turns and stream line are so god damn important. One of the reasons why Phelps was able to catch everyone on the turn was basically of his badass butterfly kick
Make a video of Caleb's underwaters
I was so excited about what Caleb could show at the Olympics but I guess we'll have to wait another year to see if he can overtake Michael in other things
Great video by the way
Why do they swim so far underwater? Is there drag less that way? It's amazing they are able to go so long without breathing while under such high exertion. Superhuman, for sure!
King of the Dolphin Kick
i think what makes him win every time is how long he stays underwater on his push offs, as you can see he returns to the surface a few seconds after the other swimmers
every swimmer at Olympic, even national level can stay long underwater, but too long gets you disqualified, it's a very tricky thing to do. What he did is special but it's not merely dolphin kicking under water, everyone at that level could do it the whole 50 meter without surfacing, it's how to maximize the advantage (dolphin kick underwater is the single fastest move human can do in swimming) without breaking rules
The greatest there was and will ever be. Even if there are faster swimmers nobody will be as great as Phelps. I have spoken. This is the way
lmao
Totally agree i wish i could swim as good as him honestly 😭
But i cant even do butterfly my fav 😂
I can do all strokes except butterfly
@júlia ferrando cañadas hola como estas?
Pssh, Chunk Norris would walk in swimming competitions caz water would be too scared to touch him.
He is the definition of perfect physics
So umm SwimStrength I have a question, say if I’m a Foreign Athlete and I train in the US for the next upcoming olympics but I want to represent my country how would that work do I have to race in my country for the Qualifying Time? Or like could I race in the US and Qualify there?
You can do that, you can train In USA and represent your country like schooling did and not giving USA trials.
SwimStrength so the Qualifying times would be whatever your countries Time is?
Yes
Where can I find that out? אמיר לביא
Emilio Mason Shane Ryan just won bronze for Ireland in the 50 back.
He was born in and lives in America...
Th beat drop in the second clip along with the underwater shot was friggin hyper bro
can someone give me any drills or tips on how to obtain fast underwaters
Kick on the side. That will improve your upsweep and downsweep of dolphin kick. World class swimmers are able to generate same amount of force in the upsweep as the downsweep.
SwimStrength thank you my brudda I am forever great full
@@SwimStrenght do u mean kick dolphin on the side?
@@alexhoang5935 yes.
Do underwaters with fins
Huge respect for the guy who beat michael phelps
I wish I could do that but then I remember that I swim 1500 free 🙃
Swimming is the Best 💪❤️
Its not impossible lol we used to practice whole laps underwater from push off or turn when I was 12
I remember at the NCR Palaro (I was pretty noob at swimming), I did no breathing for one full lap, and still got last place. I am now a rookie-tennis-player.
1:14 filmed with an android.
What a big turn what a big turn what a big turn by Michael Phelps. Epic turn.
Just to correct, shields beat Phelps at the 2014 Phillips 66 National Championships in the 100m fly finals. Other than that, good video.
El mejor de todos los tiempos!!
Michael Phelps 💪💪💪🏊♂️🏊♂️🏊♂️
The music is sick with it
Shields really nailed that underwear 🔥 🥶
Best swimmer of all time!
During practice my coach makes us swim underwater for a whole 25! So now I can do a stream line halfway down the pool at least lol
michael phelps is cool and all but the real hero is the cameraman who could hold his breath through all of this
Best in the world. Luv from India
what a big turn!
what a big turn!
what a big turn by Michael Phelps !
Just as exciting now as it was then!
This video inspires me!!
These are ones of his best but I think you should've added the 200 free in Beijing as the last
Swimming is very strange compared to track. Do the different strokes and underwater turns have any practical application?
