Phelps just smashes the 400IM world record (4:03.84) and crushes the rest of the field. Second place Laszlo Cseh 2.32 seconds behind him. Not sure what happened to Lochte, though. He didn't even feature at 4:08.09.
If this is indicative of what is to come from Phelps for the rest of the games then it is going to be awesome to watch. He is just so far ahead of the rest of the pack. He ain't human!
Interesting viewpoint on Phelps' 8G quest.

I just know you can't agree with this guy. Any swimmer that has ever swam in any organizied competition at any level knows this guy is just trashing what Phelps has done. If he knew anything about the World professional level that Phelps is swimming and how no swimmers ever have attemped this and that fact that he is going to break a 36 year old record does not say much for this guys intelligence of swimming. I think the comments from the people reading the article pretty much explain that this guy is out of it.
This is almost as STUPID as what Chad Johnson, who is the wide receiver of the Cincinnati Bengals said yesterday on ESPN show PTI, that he didn't think Phelps was that good and that swimmers in the hood from where he grew up, given the chance and opportunites, could match and beat Phelps easily and what he was doing was no big deal. In fact he said that he was champion swimmer and he could beat Phelps.
