I was wondering if being tall gives you an advantage in swimming because alot of the olympic male swimmers today are over 6 feet.
What do you guys think?

one body length per second? That'll be, like, 6'5'' per second for the top swimmers! Yikes, 8 second 50 ft swim eh? :P Yes yes I know it's the theoretically maximum... However nobody gets even CLOSE to that speed, so there must be other factors (again, taller swimmers with bigger body parts used in propulsion?) :)
