NO ! Mark Spitz is a living legend .
No he ain't not anymore phelps destroyed him
michael phelps beat mark spitz already
top 5 usa swimmers
+Javier Linea Well USA dominates the sport and have the most medals.
They also dominate in doping!
Envy
Jay Misener really😂😭
linea Michael Phelps is #1 no doubt
Holy cow. I didn't realize how successful Phelps is at the sport!
he is at collecting medals but greediness can only take u so far , he retired in 2014 then came back and juat won one more so he has 19 gold . Mark Spitz innmy opinion is still the most successful swimmer all 7 gold and all of them were world record ! this was swimming before all those swimming caps and googles !
He actually has 22 so he is far superior to spitz
Phelps 8 gold medals in one olympics were also all WRs.
DemonOfTheWest88 there is no way Spitz is more successful than Phelps. Phelps won 8 gold medals at one Olympics games compared to Spitz's 7. Add the fact that the level of competition was much higher for Phelps compared to Spitz which makes it even more incredible. Also it's not like his competitors were not wearing swimming caps and goggles as well. And finally, coming back from retirement to win more medals is not greed, it's competitive spirit. If the guy has worked harder than everyone else, he deserves all the medals he has won. Phelps is by far the greatest and most successful swimmer of all time and it's not even a debate 😂😂😂
lmao
Update:
Michael Phelps: 23 gold, 3 silver, 2 bronze
Ryan Lochte: 6 gold, 3 silver, 3 bronze
1. Phelps
2. Thorpe
3. Peaty
4. Popov
5. Sun
Please call it "Top 5 Olympic Swimmers from the States".
I miss Thorpe and Popov, who had changed swiming completly!
Where is Ian Thorpe?
😑 . He doesnt make the list
5 gold 3 silver 1 bronze = not in the top five medal winners at the Olympics. Sorry to burst people's bubble but Thorpe is not top 5.
Aww but he'll always be the best, to me.
He doesnt make the list but id kick out Jenny and out him on there at 4 ahead of lochte
Yes Thorpe's the best
Katie Ledecky will be here soon
No um hello??? she is a woman.
@@malcomf2041 LMAOOOOO-
clearly ur ignorant and an idiot for responding to a 3 yr old comment yuerjcdbhsn
@@xoluci3099 I know how old the comment was. People do keep their accounts that long you know...
Sorry I offended you by stating the truth that no women will ever be able to swim as fast as Olympic male swimmers - that's just simply the way that it is.
@@malcomf2041 that kinda doesn’t matter lmao. Woman don’t compete with men so I don’t see why that’s a problem
@@idvl8960 Women do not compete with men simply bacausw they cannot keep up with men.
Best thing to ever happen to Phelps was Ian Thorpe retiring early
Top 5 United States swimmers. Come on...seriously? No mention of Thorpe, Popov and others?
Julie Keast Thorpe had 5 gold, 3 silver and 1 bronze. Popov had 4 gold and 5 silver. Neither would've made the list based on medals.
+Bill Volckening thank u , u tell em
I agree wholeheartedly with you. Also like Pieter Van den Hoogenband.
jesus christ do people just not read anymore? or is everyone just scraping the bottom of the barrel to try to find another reason to hate the USA? I've read anything from "the US athletes all take PED's" to "The US hogs all the medals which isn't fair." No one can ever just let the best be the best these days. It seems like the ideology of today is if not everyone can win, then nobody can win. pathetic.
Bill Volckening it’s not about the medals
I like seeing how a while ago when doing dives they have both feet lined next to each other, but now one is in frint and other is in the back
Where's Eric Moussambani?
tru
***** No, he's the best swimmer in history.
***** It's the olympic spirit that counts, not anything else.
SmaxlaPvP Yea it's a joke
Billy Bob Is that you from Club Penguin? Thanks from my childhood.
Well Phelps is so ahead of all of them..... He is extraordinary
Make that 21 gold!! He's a machine 😆
23* :)
You should do top 5 most decorated Australian swimmers at the Olympics.
Or at least the top non-Americans. One does get a little tired of the constant Americo-centric view of the Olympics.
so cool
michael phelps is unbelievable
Amazing buterfly skills
The US swimmers all have tons of medals because the US is the deepest and almost always at least medals in the relays, and usually wins them.
Winning a relay medal is an impressive accomplishment, but the list of swimmers with the most individual medals is a better measure of the best of all time. E.g. Jenny Thompson had a great career, but she's not in the same class as Egerszegi, de Bruijn, Klochkova, or Katie Ledecky for that matter.
Correct if you go to individual events for guys you have biondi spitz phelps kitajima lochte mathes popov darnyi thorpe. For women you have janet evans debbie meyer ledecky otto inge egerszegi yana klotchkova as the all time greats.
when I grow up I wanna be an Olympian swimmer!!😊
GL!!!!!!!!
Saame
tiara mowery better get started.
Un updated version would be great. Feel like Adam Peaty would push out Lochte. Also some of the women competing today are absolute beasts. Katie Ladecky & Tatiana Schoemaker (apologies if it's misspelled) for example.
Phelps is something else
Michael phelps minden idők legnagyobb csalója!
Krisztina Egerszegi really should be on this list. It's unfair to overlook her because she didn't come from a country that could win relay medals. I believe she has the highest female total for individual gold medals. She also won her first gold at the age of 14 and throughout her career beat swimmers who were later caught doping.
This just proves that America has the best swimming program
Kittyofthesea808 Uh, because most of the greatest swimmers are from the U.S. lol Many top swimmers come to the U.S. to train.
Exactly !
Kittyofthesea808 the list was based purely on medals so there is no bias
And the best doping programm too
Man of Steel jelous?
The I knew that Phelps had a lot of gold medals but I never knew he had 18 GOLD medals!!!!
he has 23
Michael phelps is so amazing
*God Bless America!!!*
Thorpe should be here
Michael Phelps already crushed it as soon as he dove off
Good
Dang #2 was without goggles and a track start.
Where's Eric the Eel
He doesn't have any medals.
I think it is unfair to rate swimmers on medals tally only. Obviously Americans have a big advantage cause they are clearly the strongest team with the most depth and almost every relay is a guaranteed gold while others have to rely mostly on individual events.
My top-5 best swimmers ever (male)
1. Phelps
2. Spitz
3-5. Biondi, Michael Gross, Ian Thorpe
So 3 americans in the top-5 still not bad)
I hate loosing
-michael phelps
Make that 23 gold medals for Phelps
Top 5 USA swimmer Franziska van Almsik from Germany was the beat swimmer from Olympia

I liked the part when they swim.
Minden idők legnagyobb csalója!

Wow. This was before the era of people like ryan murphy, adam peaty, katie ledecky, caeleb dressel, etc. It's weird to think about.

@@yboywonder actually at the time this video was posted dressel wasn't even an Olympian lol
I thought AUS would be up there like the cambell sisters or maybe ian thorpe
Rainbow Bands Girl Thorpe was on the edge, and Dawn Fraser, too, but the Campbell sisters have a very long way to go.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_top_Olympic_swimming_medalists
oh, well thanks anyway :) :) :) :) :) :)
+Bill Volckening exactly !
What about all the Australians like Kyle charmers
Michael Phelps is the best ever
Thorpe beat him
true but phelps did learn from thorpes swimming techniques@@gorbynr1
The music pleaase ?
Who cares about relay medals, they're not an individual performance. A teenage Thorpe would destroy an adult Lochte.
Missy Franklin should have been in that list😤
Where is the dude from trinidad
Funny how all the swimmers are from USA right? Love Phelps a true Legend
thats because the actual top 5 swimmers of all time have 2 from different countrys, 1 being Ian thorpe from Australia
This video was made before micheal got 23 gold
Ian thorp?
where's haru?
Thorpe?
USA baby
The parameters for the assumption of proposed ascendancy is too narrow and therefore misleading and highly inaccurate.
MISSY FRANKLIN SHOULD BE IN THERE
LEDECKY will be here soon. Maybe 2nd.
Where is Federica Pellegrini?!
No Natalie Coughlin or Dara Torres?
song?
ian thorpe?
cate and bronte campbell?
adam peaty?
like srsly
Why is every single one of them from the USA
BWLucas 2002 because we have the best swimmers??
The US dominates swimming always has.
Because the U.S. is the GOAT of swimming!
BWLucas 2002 not trying to offend anyone but olympic judges are pretty biased lets be honest.
cherish there are judges in swimming??????
Where is Hosszu Katinka
Where is san le clos and joseph schooling
Katie Ledecky?where she at??
1. MP
2. MP
3. MP

Michael phelps THE GOAT👏🏻
Alexander Popov?
They did it by total medals.
Where is Katinka Hosszu???
i love to be michael pheips
Where’s missy Franklin
weres Mac West?
It should be called top 5 male USA Olympic swimmers
Ewa the Unicorn!!! Why
Thorpe??
Lukas Rietfors 5 gold 3 silver 1 bronze = not in the top five medal winners at the Olympics
+Bill Volckening u tell him ! these people keep saying the same thing .they need to do more research before commenting on here
He was an amazing Australian swimmer.
of course Phelps is #1
i say Spitz for 2
7 golds, 7 world records in the same olympics
wiw
what about phelps 8 g medals and 8 wr's
What about missy franklin or Katie ledecky?
Bunnies Are Bae hahahahahaha omg did you check the date this video came out. 🤪🤪🤪 Everyone keep saying Katie ledecky but omg I am going crazy
Ian Thorpe ????
He isn't in the top 5
he is if you take into account the amount of medals the us swimmers won in relays
Pizza002013 Pizza002013 First of all, Ian Thorpe is Australian. Second, the top 5 list starts at 11 medals as the lowest. Thorpe only had 9.
I am saying that if Ian Thorpe had the benefit of a champion relay team he would have easily won more than 11 medals
Pizza002013 Pizza002013 But did he??? No
Chad LE Clos
No other sports have the chance to win more medals than swim.
Where's Sun yang
He doesn’t have enough medals. Plus he got an eight year doping ban.
What about darra torres
А где Иан Торп,Натан Адриан
micheal Phelps alway the best 🏊🏻 🏆🚩
