the reenactment of japanese sport scientist was gold.

1:29 "They started using underwater photography.." *throws vintage camera in the pool*

The moral of the story is if you are good at something remember there will always be an Asian who can do it better

Thank you KZfaq for recommending this video to me. I was watching tigers having babies and now I am watching how Japan changed swimming.

I really appreciate Japan. It is technologically advance Yet is disciplined nation And also maintained tradition.. Wow......such a hard-working and polite nation...🌸🌸 Love from India

They changed it by the creation of “Free! Iwatobi Swim Club”

I love that they didn't cut the Olympic solute

Also, the quick in Volleyball is from Japan in order for them to beat the tall oponents

Many many thanks for providing this vidio & informations. Ancient or old records are always. Motivating to proceed ahead with confidence❤️🇭🇺🇭🇺🇭🇺💛🇭🇺🇭🇺🇭🇺💙🇭🇺🇭🇺🇭🇺💚🇭🇺🇭🇺🇭🇺😀😆😄

At 2:33 look at that massive freaking bellyflop

2:13 me when I find 5 dollars on the ground

Is it sad that I live in the USA but was cheering for Japan this whole video😂

I could beat this guys, they are probably like 100 years old

Those trailblazing Japanese have led the way in so much: swimming science, electronics, cars, and so much more. Bravo, Japan!!

Sports is science! If you do your technique scientifically you have the advantage.

They might add that the surge of Americans to the top was lead by Hawaii Swim Club and coach Sakamoto. The swimmers were primarily of Japanese ancestry.

I would be interested in the history of the flip turn. I see videos in the 1950s showing some using it, others not. Wikipedia credits Al Vande Weghe in the 30s. I can’t find any footage of him demonstrating the new technique and who were the first adopt it. This is probably as important as the Fosbury flop is to the high jump.

This video is comedy gold. When he threw the camera I- can’t even😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣🤣

Japanese is about optimization.

I always appreciate the Japanese.... Their passion and the way the do things.... they performed and do it whole heartedly..... Japanese constantly made Japan proud.....

They not just copy, the perfected it.

2:48 min that looks painful

Wow, Congratulations to the Japanese Swimming champions and their coaches! Its a sad thing that their secrets were revealed and copies by their competitors. But at least, they have proved that they can beat the Americans in a very unique way.

OMG, that Japanese ingenuity! Such smart, innovative people. Wonderful history that few knew about, especially Americans. The media here wants everyone to think the US is best in everything and has always dominated - NOT true! Japan is awesome in the summer and winter Olympics now!

The japanese also had a go at marathon and 10k always innovating until others figure out their ways.Then physical attributes take over.

3:33 is that Eugene Lee Yang from the Try Guys?

Japanese innovates everything...

1:50 ooh My the swimmer.. < 3

Essa foi incrível!

It would be so much fun to go back in time and just dominate with all the things we know today and all the items we have available to us today.

Is it weird that I got chills towards the end

Lmao ‘great swim coach Salvador Dali’

I love Japan

Wow Japan

Japan have been waiting for long time since then, until Daichi Suzuki upset the favorite David Berkoff in men's 100m backstroke at 1988 Olympic.

I almost buy Salvador dali as swim coach.. LoL internet...

What modifications they did tho?what's the modification improvement they did?

This looks like a different sport!

Extraordinary

Cool!

Meanwhile, Shinji Takeuchi of Total Immersion is the favorite instructor of freestyle on youtube.

This country’s so good

Anyone else got hooked on swimming after watching Free!

so cool

I love swimmimg!

extra - ordinary

Oh.. they were researching swimming style for olympic.. i thought those scientists were doing live action swimming club anime... I could've sworn they were playing deja vu - initial d song...

Streamlined spectacles?

Bondi rescue says different

That is in 1932? How much more today? 🤩

If I was born a Japanese person, I'll be proud too being a Japanese. I was stationed in Japan for more than a decade of my military career. I've seen and experienced their culture, their tradition, their technology, their work ethics and their self-discipline. And for that, I can say the Japanese are just brilliant and genius with anything and everything they put their mind, heart and soul to it.

3:33 HH

You could say this was the dawn of sports science. Yes, the strength of individuals counts but the technique is just as important. Japanese took advantage of being the first but the rest of the world soon followed and caught Japan.

invention keep you forward,but consistency remain question,

2:32 belly flopping in the Olympics

Arigato!!

Los angeleees

America: we are the best at everything you can’t stop us. Japan: we observed so now you can.

2:53 excuse me what

los *angelees*

Salvador Dali a swimming coach?

1:00 freemaons hand shake all sport is fixed.

A swim cap in 1928!? Who knew?

TIL they didn't wear goggles back then. 😲

I LOVE JAPAN!!!

What can i say you learn from the best 🇺🇸

"There is always an Asian better than you"

wow

AYYYY MY LAST NAME IS MIYAZAKI

The economic depression was in full swing in 1932. That also contributed to fewer amateur athletes.

I didn't know men also wore one-piece swimsuits

You know this explains how the Japanese do so well in events, they have used sports science to win events they are not really great at.

I am Indian but I Love Japanese very very much because Japanese love his country very much I💟Japanese very much

Roses are red, violets are blue, there's always an asian who's better then you!

Who’s the American who won gold without the new technique? Or was his technique just naturally better?

Swimming 1500m w/o goggles???????? :o

*Segue o único penta* 🇧🇷🇧🇷

Sorry Michael Phelps. Here come some Asians that also cannot get close

science, a ba zu re!

Thats how i always swam

Dear Planet japan, I want to be smart as Japanese citizen, DM me the recipe.

free live action

It is not the "free"style swimming ,it is called crawl

my question is, why didn't they wear goggles or swim caps?

I love British accent

That's all changed now.

Then Michael Phelps came

tradition of USA 😂

Nadar

The last guy on the last lane down the screen is not a swimmer how do u dive that way.....wahaaaàt

If penguins and sardines can swim at a fast pace, why not Japanese!

I wonder how this affected American public sentiment towards Japan, especially with WWII around the corner

Then like 15 years later they bombed perl harbor. So awkward. Just saying.

1st

tora tora tora,, banzaiiiiii

nerds

Not how you pronounce "extraordinary" lol.
