YouTube - 100 free semi final -world record by alain bernard
Another world record in the 100 meter free. Looks like Bernard is wearing an Arena tech suit. It seemed like a pretty controlled swim. I wonder how long it will take to get down to 46.5 (maybe this summer?).
The French relay looks like it will be even better at Worlds.

Huh? Is that how they make the WR line? Wouldn't it be simple to actually have the red line generated from the prior footage? A simple computer program could track the "real" line. No?
It's possible I think- they did something like that with downhill skiing a few years ago if I remember correctly. But that was on the same course from the same camera position- might be more difficult with different and new perspectives. Maybe they could change the rates between lane line meter marks? Interesting question, JMiller.
