The GB Aquatics Olympic Trials were one of the best produced and quickest meets we've seen in the LC pool in a long time outside of an Olympics or a World Championships. Swim meets at this level typically run pretty smoothly, but when dealing with as many moving parts as you do at a swim meet...something is bound to go wrong.

What a meet. The men's swimming was CRAZY. Proud 21.2 50free, Peaty back with a 57.9 100breast, Scott with a massive 200IM, 3 men sub48 in the 100 free, and a 1:46.9 coming SIXTH in the 200free final. Unbelievable scenes.
loved it
Loved watching the GB Aquatics, was well presented, produced and easily accessible. The return of Peaty, and the 200m free were pure class.
You missed the point where Oliver Morgan won the A Final and celebrated by Sitting on the lane rope, just after one had broken.
took a mini-vacation, but I'm back with more GB Trials content in the queue 🤝
Thank you!!!
I don't understand GB swim as much, so it's so helpful for you to go through it!
I don't understand GB swimming very well, so it's so helpful when you go through it!
Most of my swimming buddies, and myself call them lane lines... other people I've heard them call ropes, never heard it called lane separator... Personally I like the "a bunch of buoys on a metal string, that if broken can cause chaos at a swim meet"
Just got back from practice to see this masterpiece of a video
Same! ❤
For real bro
I work as a lifeguard and there's 2 different types of lane rope, you've got the bog standard lane rope that all pools have and you have what is called an anti-turbulence rope (an anti-turb), these are a lot thicker than a regular lane rope and are used for major competitions because they prevent turbulence from one lane affecting another lane. The ones used here look like anti-turbs and they should be.
We’re glad that the new lane line put in didn’t break after she went over it 😂😂😂😂
Thank you for the explanation about lane separators, Kyle. As a non-swimmer, this is the first time I've heard someone discuss them.
To go more in-depth, the buoys prevent drafting. It is a common misconception that the water behind and next to swimmers flows backwards (from the kicking and pulling). The water around the swimmer actually goes forward with the swimmer. If you get next to a faster swimmer (without the lane dividers), you can ride their wave and keep up surprisingly easily. This is actually a fun game, have swimmers pair up, one puts their fins on. The other swimmer can keep up if they swim right in their hip.
That is the main job of the buoy dividers.
Yassss I made the video and I’m drippy 😂😂😂
LOUIS LAWLOR ‼️‼️
Alexa, add 2 T-shirt cannons to my shopping list
🤣
Lane line for sure 💯
💯💯💯
And the long boi holding all those buoys together is a wire rope, not a metal string. It's a rope because it consists of multiple wires twisted together.
who could not love this guy
MemeNationalCentre getting his meme out before it even showed on stream. Bro was cooking at pace.
Let's go!! New Kyle vid = day x13 better
The actual best RUclipsr ever
now this is the content we need
Great editing. Great content. Lots of views for swimming content.
Kyle, great content. If you want to contrast production quality have a look at the South African trials streaming on You Tube at the moment. They don't even have a small clock running in the corner during the races so you can see how the swimmers are going. Not knocking them, I'm a South African myself but living in the UK now. Just would have a thought a clock would be useful for viewers.
Oh, and it's a LANE ROPE!
Keep the content coming.
scary, happened to me, one evening at my club. Very old lane lines broke, and metal rope started wrapping around the other lanes, me and another non-swimmer, who was just aqua-jogging. Started to twirl and metal rope started sinking. Finally swam under and used emergency phone. At first, the front desk didn’t believe me and/or think it was an emergency….until I started yelling if they wanted to see some drown folks.
Watched every minute of this meet. What about a video on the 21.25??? Or Peaty?
Hey Kyle, do you know what the rule is about putting manual lapcards in the water ? It's not explicitly stated that it has to be out of the water in the WA rules but we have a local meet coming up this weekend and they're insisting that the lap cards for 1500 & 800 have to be out of the water.
Lane line
Real
Funniest swimming video I’ve ever seen 😂😂
kyle what's ur opinion on the international student athletes (josh liendo and leon marchand) winning all 3 their events at men's ncaa? do u think the international swimmers are gonna start taking over the records at ncaa more than actual americans
‘FoReigNers’ aka international student athletes
@@curtismann6851 actually i like that wording better thanks
Lol you are to the spot of swimming what Rick’sF1addicton is to Formula 1 😂 love it ❤
I Directed the live broadcast of this event!! 😂
Lane rope & TIDY THAT ROOM! 😅
Swimming + Funny = GOOD!
I have literally no interest in swimming… until now. May have to get up to speed before the Olympics. RUclips recommendations on fire 🔥 today
Whats great is eveyone active just took over the London aquatics Centre 2 months ago
You forgot the part where Ollie Morgan sits on the replaced lane rope😅…
Thanks for some GB content
Had a few friends at the meet, I was told this was the second time a lane line broke 😂
You comin to San Antonio tyr series ?
Cleaning a lane like up in full clothes, impressive
the swimmer you called drippy, louis lawlor, is lovely guy ahah
In Uruguay we call them "Andariveles".
Glad no one was in the water. The tension on a lane line could do some damage. I do wonder why they didn’t use a net or even a life guard noodle to corral the pieces faster. . . One at a time seems slow.
Wait you guys don’t call them backstroke propellers?
The pool for Canadian Trials was damaged by a fire so it's now in Toronto, at my home pool.
Also, is there any Canadian Open content planned, it starts tomorrow.
Great video, as always.
Always a lane rope.
w editing on this vid
Big up limitless broadcast and time to elev8!
Well I was actually there when this happened and I think there were less t shirts fired out that you are trying to make out - it was a back stroker who broke the lane marker by the way - I cannot comment on the TV coverage as I was there nut there was clearly no issue within the crowd there 12 minutes between end of race when break occurred and intro of swimmers for next race
Lane line, the only correct term. My pool growing up had old, bad lane lines. I was expert and replacing them. Dove in and grab the end of the cable (not metal string) to keep too many floats jailbreaking. Unhook the other end and hook new one to that. Swim to broken end and pull in new lane line. 5 minute job.
I bet it was those gosh darn lane line cellys!!!
confirmed to not be the case actually 🤝
Owen Lloyd's up to more shenanigans
What the lifeguard thinks will happen when you lean on the rope:
yes a new vid!! 😍
Whenever a winning swimmer leaps up onto the lane rope, I always wonder if the line is going to snap.
Interesting that you call them lane separators in the US. We call them lane ropes in Australia.
I love the content
same thing happened at moldovas winter nationals in feb before the 100 free last heat lol
my brother is the Para swimmer in Blue waiting 😂
This was day 2 and the 2nd one to break.
It actually happened twice!
I literally swim for bolton metro and didnt even know 2 of our para swimmers were competing wtf
Not fair for the swimmers, I would need to warm up again after waiting for 15 minutes
Hard not to see the irony of a building full of some (arguably) above average swimmers & we’ve got ole girl in her clothes almost drowning while trying to remove floats one at a time.
Hey at least she got to do something - Lifeguard for a swim meet has to be soul destroying. You know if something did happen to a swimmer, 20 people would be in the pool and there way faster that you could ever be.
did i miss it or did we hear what caused the lane line to break?
Wasn’t a celly so it had to be from swimmers exiting the pool over the lane lines
it was a male back stroker = I was actually there - it was leaning on the line
i've rarely seen (never in a meet) in 1000s and 1000s of hrs
Idk abt you but if I had to fix it I'd have 3 foot of rope spare always then tie a sheet bend on both sizes then ez 1 minute fix which would hold for long after the end of the race when they can do it properly
Buoy remover #1
Jokes on William Ellard I’m a 59.50
SCY 💀
You didn't show the celebration that broke the lane line. Because it was a celebration, right. Right?
It wasn’t actually, they didn’t get it on camera but I’m assuming it was someone swimming over the lane line to exit the pool (common outside of the US) that did it
i had something like this happen to me at my last meet...3 times.
You can tell he's American because he didn't take a few seconds to pay respect to the swimmers you'd expect to be competing for a team spot based on last year but REALLY didn't perform. It was a surprising B final
Or maybe this video wasn’t meant for the die hard swimming fan and instead was meant to reach people outside of the sport, keep them entertained, and hopefully leave them wanting to keep learning about it…
…just a thought 🤷♂️
We are gonna find out who made that lane line 😂
Malmsten
Herbie Behm 50 free race video, when?
It’s okay Kyle I’ll forgive you this time. But it’s called lane line.

Lane rope. Don't complicate it.

Claim your here within an hour ticket here
Anything but lane line is wrong

wtf is a booey

This video could have been 2 minutes long and had all of the same substance. Consider dialing back some of the chattiness a bit? Also less cuts back and forth to your face and what you are actually talking about, or just keep your face at the bottom right of screen if you really must. Seeing your face intermittently breaks up the flow and adds no value.
No reason to watch this guy
OVER!!!! LOL
Just got back from practice to see this masterpiece of a video
