HE HAS DONE IT! 8 Golds for Michael Phelps, the most remarkable Olympian ever, fantastic swim by all of the Americans. There was a little doubt in the beginning but they edged away. The pressure his team mates must of been under would be unbearable. Well done!
Britain came 6th and Italy disqualified.
He done it! What a legend, what an amazing guy. The best achievement anyone could get in their lifetime. I was rooting for him the entire time and I'm happy he got all 8 golds, hope to see him again in 2012!
just wtched the victory ceremony.he also got like a plaque for his outstanding achievements.hope to see him in london (Y)
pft thats crap.
Good on him.![]()
Outstanding. Hopefully, in 2012, he'll break the record for the most medals in the olympic games to one athlete. I think some gymnast got 18 olympic medals over her career.
Mark Spitz (American Swimmer also) got 7 gold medals in a single Olympic games in Munich during the 70s. Michael Phelps aimed for 8 golds to beat Spitz's record of 7 golds in one games. There's a chance if Phelps continues and takes up more events such as some sprints and long distance events he could aim for perhaps 10 golds in 2012 but he'll probably be past his peak.
