i've saw this a wk or 2 ago, and as sad as it is, and as bad as i feel for him, i always bust out when he gets to the wall and is pushing off. he goes about 2 feet before he's back to the top

1. i could swim faster than that.

2. when you come from a country without a pool, i doubt you have too much competition.

He's cut his time to around 56 seconds I believe. He had no coaching, equipment, proper swim training, etc. You could really tell that he'd never went a full 100 meters before based on the second half of his swim.

That thing couldn't have been real, right? It had to be sound piped in over footage of some guys goofing in the pool.
