What's your opinion on best swim of all time ?
It probably won’t be a swim prior to the 70's.
I use to think that the best swim of all time would be a medley however I'm starting to change my tune on this.
For me now I think the truly finest swim would be a freestyle event...i.e Freestyle is more important than the strokes because it's unique.

Grany Hackett's 14:34 for the mile is really an amazing achievement.
Basically he's traveling at just over 58 seconds flat ~ per hundred meters.
(That translates to 100 yards repeats at roughly 50+ seconds each.)
And he looks like he's in slow motion while doing it.
...Tom Dolan's 500 free was quite a show too. (Out in 47 sec. on the first 100...and :49 for the remaining four. ) Wow.
