I just shit my pants that was amazing

The time of a great champion: David Popovici, a phenomenon!

fr?

@@williamwarren9397 Just kidding, actually. Many of us who spent a lot of time in pools with lane lines remember being yelled at by lifeguards for holding onto them. You would hear it all the time while working out.

Cesar cielo filho 13 years ago rome'09 in 46.91

He'll probably smash the 50m record if he does beef up although he has a lot of work to do there. Maybe we need Dressel to kill that WR for us

@@swimgood3873 But i think he cancelled his 50m event because he want to participate in 400m ?!

@@andreitud6707 I just meant as he's only 17, if he does gain a lot of size and muscle he can be a gold medalist at the 50 too. For this champs he probs needs a sub 22 to medal in the 50m and I doubt he is there yet. Had no idea he was going for the 400m I've not seen him race that, but maybe he has more chance to medal in that event.

It's definitely possible at one point. If someone said the 50 would be broken in the next year I'd guess it to be Dressel unless Popovici gets even stronger much sooner than we expect. I'm really hoping one of them gets it, and I feel like Popovici probably will before the end of his career. I'd like to see any super suit time fall as soon as possible so whoever gets it first is fine by me. But this kid might actually be the guy to sweep 50 through 400 in free. His recent time in that would have been phenomenal if he didn't miscount lol. I doubt he'll make that mistake again.

@@ETHomerin how did he miscount with the bell? Lol when was this? But yeah Pop's frame & build really suits his current race distances extra muscle could also effect his engine for the 200 etc so will have to see! Either way the dude is a beast.

Popov was 48.2 at his best.

Better lol

The idea is to be unique not someone else

hes gonna be better

Nah, Popov was really good. David might come close though.

Asa se pare ca va fi. 😄 Zeci de trofee.

Nu ii place sa isi tina medaliile in vitrine,le tine intr-o cutie,nu ii place sa se uite la ele.

Impossible to go under '46, seriously, it's too much.

Only time will tell us the answer...but I am guessing this time is not so far away ;)

Nah. He might go a sub 46.5 although even that is still somewhat unlikely.

45' at least.

Bolt of swimming not bolt of free style swimming, 100m freestyle is the queen of all swimming styles and the fastest style of swimming. He is the fastest man in water. Bolt is the fastest man on earth.

@@sorinsorin788 *word* - asa este

He doesnt need to crush anyone, he smashed already the WR, so he is fastest man on planet in 100m freestyle

@@FoxcrawlHolland If he decides to swim a 100m butterfly, Milak and Dressel will definitely crush him.

@@wesw7241 If he decides to play football,Messi is going to be better🤡🤡

@@dunastefan3288 Messi💩💩

Blame European Acquatics

Daca n-ar fi fost bacul ala distrugator, ar fi facut ceva si anul asta. Din nefericire, statul roman nu l-a ajutat destul sa invinga necrutatorul bac.

Adevarat 😅ma mandresc cu el mai ales ca a castigat aici la italieni unde traiesc

Haha, nice touch!

Sure, but you need to send me a signed cap

Yu! It's arrogance! No Yankee in, so he spits on the whole event and stadion... ...hope they fire you... ME TOO!!!

:))))))))

You've must've come from the future in Fukuoka. How is the Olympics gonna be, future man?
