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!

As a swimmer, I can really enjoy the amazing feat that is about to commence as of this weekend, it really looks like Phelps is going to at least tie Spitz.
However, my husband is a non-swimmer and has enjoyed watching swimming with me this week - but when he sees Phelps win over and over again - he says it's boring to watch.
I have to admit it is a bit monotonous, but the guy is a horse... I wonder what it feels like to get up on that podium over and over again.
Must be nice.
Frank- My husband had me listen to that Johnson interview last night... we both just laughed our way thru it. I'm sure he can beat Tiger Woods and Kobe at their respective sports as well.
