If he was British, he would of been rubbish.

I think he make it to 8.

He hasn't even raced 8 times yet :S

3 Golds now, I think he'll make it to 8 as well.

He's raced 8 times exactly so far. You don't just get into the final straight away...

That makes no sense, we have good swimming facilities in the UK and from what I can gather Team GB works hard to get the best out of people. I guess Phelps probably wouldn't of won the relay if he was British but that's just a silly and uneducated comment.

He just won his fourth gold medal, making him the greatest Olympian ever with his total of 10 gold's. He was looking a little sloppy though and didn't seem happy with his performance, even though he still broke the world record. As he has done in every final so far.

The Men's 4 x 200m Freestyle Relay Final is at 4:19am, which he is also competing in. He's on at 1:13pm in heat 6 of the Men's 200m Individual Medley. Three events in one day, he must be getting tired.

USA just won by 5 seconds, which is a lot in swimming. Broke the world record by miles as well. Phelps got ahead straight away. How is he so good!? How does he get ahead of everyone else!? Five gold's now, three to go. He didn't look tired at all in this event.

Great Britain did quite well, but ended up 6th.

If you watch him in his starts and turns, he spends alot of time under water. That is where you can make a difference, as it is the fastest part of the swim. I used to swim, and my coach always said to do well on the starts and turns, sadly I did not listen :rolleyes:.

11 gold medals ever, 5 gold medals in this olympics, 5 world records in this olympics.

He is, truly, the greatest olympian ever. He's outstanding. I'd be surprised if he doesn't get the other 3.

No, your post seemed kind of idiotic to me.

Ah, I see. I'll pay more attention to his starts and turns then. I can't believe how good he is compared to everyone else though. Everyone else seems to finish around roughly the same time, but Phelps is already a mile ahead. Aparrently some people aren't competing in the Olympics because they can't beat him.
