2008 Caesar Cielo breaks US open 100 Fr record & Barrier

amazing swim. note that he does some dolphins off the start/turns. certainly looks to me like he's flutter kicking pretty hard too...

I was there and could barely believe my eyes. It was a stunning swim!

amazing. is there video anywhere?

Thanks Jeff for the superb video. Much better thank YouTube. It looked as if he didn't waste any time breaking out of the turns and starting up on the flutter kick. 216.197.124.49/.../NCAAMenDay3Finals-3.wmv

The 40.92 100 yards converts to a 45.67 SCM, and a 47.42 LCM, again... besting the world...

We've got video of the race on our site as well: www.swimmingworldmagazine.com/.../17631.asp

www.youtube.com/watch So effortless the first 75 yards...

I wonder what place Cielo would've taken if Alain Bernard, Eamon Sullivan and Stefan Nystrand were in the race.

He probably would win in 100 sc yards. LC - ???
