15 year old us : watching netflix and getting drunk drinking coke
15 year old phelps: gets first place in olympic heats
You don't have to win a Olympic medal to be successful in life. Just doing sports as good as you can...
well i dont behave like you
as 15 year old this is very true
How do you get drunk on coke?
Me, a 15 year old swimmer laughing at this comment instead of attending the Olympic trials
Imagine dedicating your life to swimming and spending 6 hours a day training just to get beat by a 15 year old
This comment is dumb af Phelps was working harder than anyone here it’s not like he was blessed to be a god at swimming
@@niemann7214 If you truly think there are guys there who have less training than a 15 year old, I don't even know what to tell you. And genetics 100% plays a part in his success, not saying he didn't work hard but I don't think he'd be there if he wasn't like 6'5 with a 17 meter wingspan and could palm a yoga ball.
@@leo-vb5jq he is 6'4 and definitely wasn't 6'4 at 15 also you get fitter faster at a younger age, just like you learn faster at a younger age
@@leo-vb5jq your right, but I heard he trained 10 years without stopping. No breaks on holidays, no days off. It’s insane, I get genetics play a huge part but people discredit the insane work ethic he had
@@Bayo106 double jointed in elbows knees and shoulders ya he does kinda have an advantage
The greatest Olympian of all time.
They do be playing All Stars
Hahahahahahhahahahah I thought I was the only one who noticed
timestamp?
@@-guitarhero they play it in the background as the swimmers come it
And then he developed his legendary underwater turns!!
divine soul that goes to Tom shields
HONKY! THE! BALTIMORE! BULLET! (BB)! IS! (INCREDIBLE)! HONKY! HA! HA! HA!
This kid has potentials! If he keeps working hard, he win some golds in the future
@@4456dabblercheesefry1 he was joking
One of the best moment in Olympic ever, Michael Phelps is a legend 😁
My personal favourite is the 2008 Beijing men's 4 x 100 free final
@@luke.bodybuilder agreed. Best sports moment in history imo.
HONKY! CORRECT! PHELPS! THE! (G,O,A,T)! IS! (INCREDIBLE)! HONKY! HA! HA! HA!
A young swimmer stands at the doorway to greatness
who knew that one day there would be a 1:50.73 in the record books...
Crazy. Even crazier that it was swum by a 19-year old
milak😳😳😳
@@billybob6604 u
I was sitting on the deck watching when the first guy broke 2 minutes for 200 free. That was in
1963. When I was 15 I went 2:18 for 200 fly and that was pretty fast.
He will always be legend 🏆🏆🏊🏊
Why is this exhausting to watch?
200 fly every swimmers nightmare...
I feel like 400 medley is just as bad or even worse
PrimaL for most people, 200 butterfly is definitely more exhausting cuz you can still move when you’re tired when you’re swimming backstroke breaststroke and freestyle, but definitely not for butterfly
@@jasonamachree yep especially when you not a fly swimmer
As a former swimmer (and butterflier) the 200 still gives me nightmares. Hardest race in swimming. Last ten meters the water feels like liquid mercury.
I like to imagine him taking his driving course classes in the back seat while his mom drives him home
Very good pacing for a 15 year old. He went out in ‘56 and came back in about 61, compared to 55/63 from the others.
Bowman coached him well.
Phelps will always be a LEGEND
This was amazing. Phelps was a full body length behind at the halfway point and still won.
Thank you for the high quality video transfer, and deep dive back to the beginnings of Michael's career.
He's 15 and is 1 second away from the World record. Never again in our lifetimes will we see that!
what i never knew that micheal phelps won his first olympic race
i feel so useless after seeing this, but seriously good on him I didnt know you could be that young to qualify to go to the olympics
Michael Phelps is great swimmer.
I love this dude
Uma lenda!
The legend
MP, You could do 2021. A 5peat in the 200 IM has a nice sound to it.
Well.. First olympic race at 15TEEN.. A gold and a world record😂🏅
@Hansen Zhang He broke the world record too when he was 15 years, but not in the olympic games.
Wow I got emotional for the 10th time watching this
I wish he was competing for 2020…
He looks so young
The greatest Olympian of all time
carrying a discman, how I love the latter 90's/early 00's
I miss him
who doesn’t
15 what a freak
all star in the background lol
Première course de Phelps aux jeux olympiques, je l'avais jamais vue
Cette course ?
永久˙實力
For all those who want to skip the first few parts, the race starts at 1:40
only guy with good technique
Laslo cseh was just as old as phelps in this race . Both born 85
Was that when he qualified or during the qualifying tournament?
Theres multiple rounds in the Olympics
123monguin4 really
Still same announcer at 2020 olympics
Free Iwatobi swim club sent me here
where is my haru-chan? lmao
Майкл Феликс
dope
Funny how he waved before a race here and then never again.
Why are they looking to the sides at the 2nd 50m?
That's a breathing technique.
@@lajohnson1ly Ah okay thanks!
@@bigstronkbee :-) The majority of butterfly swimmers raise their head to the front to breathe. Phelps did. But turning the head to the side doesn't raise it out of the water as much, thus not lowering the body behind it as much, attempting to create less drag. Depends on the swimmer.
Это сильнейший заплыв? Он ведь занял 5 место на первой своей Олимпиаде в Сиднее на дистанции 200 м баттерфляем
China without doping be like
Lol
Ebonics and evolution
First
Phelps, he was a syndrome.
imo the minum age for participation in Olympics should be 18, or at least 15. These are still children.
But this shouldn’t be possible. Olympics requires minimum 18 to qualify???? They must have made an exception checking the performance...
Narayan Maharana There is no specific age limit for olympics actually! Individual sports can set limits though, for example gymnastics recently raised theirs to 16
Clearly u never watched other Olympics games before. Nadia Comaneci, a gymnast, got her gold medals and the first ever perfect 10.0 score when she was 14.
