Sun Yang Smashes Men's 1500m Freestyle World Record - London 2012 Olympics 

Specially after his coach look to him too lol

Chance lmao

Bagus

he got exited and scaried then his blood pressure etc boosted by his brain so and so

Na easy when you know you are on performance enhancing drugs.

no he doesn't do 56s for 100m, if he did his time would be 14:00, he does around a 58 per 100 to get to 14:30 but that's still insanely fast

Yeah that is my sprint pace for 1 100! He does 15 at that pace. It blows my mind that's all.

I'm a swimmer in hs right now and i need to get on your level. My 50m freestyle time is 43. But then again i'm a freshmen

RxgIaNt44 43 is kind of rough but you are starting out. Keep it at it bud, I am 5.7 and made it to state 2x with 1:04 in 100 breaststroke. The awesome thing about swimming is that the more you work (and this includes technique) the better you get. Good luck and always remember that girls in bathing suits are a lot better than a room full of sweaty guys : D

Manuel Gutierrez 1:04 isnt bad! I had that when i was 13 tho ;))

oof

That's just question dude, or just an opinion as a commentator

+kowalityjesus I'm not even a big swimming fan. But watching his stroke under water through the 1500 m is a work of art. I wish him luck in Rio.

+Vette gaddia truly is a work of art.

kowalityjesus I like distance

400 IM on 50-meters pool is the hardest one in swimming

I don't know if you swim but I can give you some piece of advise. I am a person who started swimming seriously just a year ago and I was able to swim 200 meters before I die. Now I am able to swim for at least 2 straight ours or over 7 kilometers. The secret is in the pace. You need to try to start very slowly and then increase the tempo over time. Also I can do the same thing with medley. The secret is in the frequent training, slow pace and commitment. Good luck.

Interesting - did his London 2012 samples turn positive results? How about Kazan 2015, Rio 2016, Budapest 2017??? Which one returned positive doping results?? Or are you making an assumption based off of what you think is the truth?

True! :) But it's the same: People work 8-10 hours a day besides their training. Does Sun even work 2 hours a day? (No, he works 0 hour/day, because he is a swimmer).

Well, I guess the media gave out that number because it was considered a lot among the swimmers as well! I'm not certain though!

Trakyyy I hate walking or running but I swim 6 or 7km a day so

Young Dancers lol yeah me too.. I get pissed off walking from my home to train station 1 km away every morning but I swim like 3 km everyday

warren nicky dude, stop being a china fandog . U can instead use this time to do other things meaningful other than being someone’s dog.

not doping he got banned for rejecting dope check

that's actually 4 beat kick...for most of the race

@@baraklevy3344 OK; it appears that you're correct. At the 8:00 mark he is using a two-beat kick, then we see much more four beat kicks. However, most of the kicks are light, almost like stabilizer kicks (with some propulsion), then two of them are stronger, to help turn the body most likely. Thanks for the clarification. Most of the kicks look like he's kicking once with one leg strongly, then two small kicks on the other side, followed by another strong kick, making a total of three kicks with one leg. Maybe this has something to do with balancing out the alternating breathing sides?

@@mumpygumboo8554 well i see one main kick for the stroking hand, then followed by 3 small ones as you mentioned. I dont think breathing is related but i am just a beginner so no idea.

That's why....

@@mumpygumboo8554 he was cheating tho

which provided him with tons of adrenaline

Han Solo good point dude

Han Solo That is a good point, but in an event like the 1500 free, a swimmer has to calm down. Had it been a sprint like th 50 or 100 free then adrenaline would have played a part.

Phanteus He also got suspended for doping :p

Mark Dawes He did, he took a banned stimulant for chest pains he was suffering. However, the substance he took is no longer on the banned substance list as of this year. “to clarify, under the current list, Trimetazidine is currently prohibited in-competition only until the end of 2014. For the 2015 List, you will see it has moved (to) section S.4.5.” Essentially, trimetazidine has been reclassified and downgraded. As of January 1, it will not be on the banned stimulant list.

Don’t get too inspired. Wouldn’t want you to fail your drug tests as well.

Just stay away from drugs

@@georgeyboy5256 ok :)

@@georgeyboy5256 Why do people like you always have to ruin everything when China wins something?

Do not shun our people like this please.

Nice one: life is more complicated than just black and white

@@georgeyboy5256who Sun Yang？

+Eric Chen gogles fog when factory coating gets worn out or damaged. In that case, you can apply 1 drop of anti-fog liquid, and there will be no fog for the whole day.

Every time coming out of water I apply quite a bit of soap water on both sides of the goggles, wash most of it off but leave some remaining on the goggles to protect the surface. I've got no fogging problem at all.

I just lick them... And that works ...

Super Noodles me too hahah

He probably has high quality anti-fog goggles for the Olympics 😂

Hahahhaaha

David Eke dude that’s impressive time , how on earth did you get that time

hahahhaha good one

@@justabbie3419 10 laps. its a 50m pool

Me too. Unbelievable. WHat's gone wrong with our swim?

an aussie announcer mentioned off-hand that sun yang swims up to 100 km (62+ miles) A WEEK! we will always be hobbyists compared to legends like sun yang, grant hackett, oussama mellouli.

wanttoliveyoungforever Your stroke is probably really bad. You are also probably very unfit. People who swim for a sport often swim around 5 km a training session, 10 times a week or so.

swimming long distance is really not difficult...reducing beat kicks (4 beat kicks each breath), taking long strokes with slow speed, only swim like a sprinter in the last 100m. That's my experiences. in every summer, I swim about 12km/week (4 days per week)-3km each day ( swim 1500m 2 times each) :D. I know I am able to finish 5-10km each time but it take too much time.

theterminator308 Thank you so much. I will train harder. Yes I am quite unfit for that long, or maybe my breathing teachnique isn't correct. Because i get exhausted easily..

He was using doping that’s why. Doping is a drug that you use before an game so that you’ll automatically perform better

@@lmao4258 that’s complete bullshit. His doping scandal is very controversial to say the least and it’s not very clear whether he actually doped or not. Nevertheless, his 2012 Olympics achievement is ironclad - he was tested several times before and after the event and his world record still stays valid. Stop spreading false information.

@@funpark3218 he got done for doping ages after this tho

+Naman Mathur well, he still got gold in 200m freestyle, so he isnt like seriously injured.

Well he got food poisoning during his last few days at Rio. It was on the news maybe not on the American media

+Berkan Cevik Sun got 2 gold medals in 2012 for Men's Freestyle 400m and 1500m, both OR and WR respectively. Then he took the supplement in 2014 so his glory in 2012 will never be invalid. There is no evidence Sun took that supplement before the Olympic Game in London 2012, much like there is no evidence Hackett, Thorpe, and Phelps took that supplement. Oh wait, Thorpe wore his tights that covers all his body, which decreases coefficient of friction which is malicious for only his wearing it and Sun's supplement was affirmed by WADA later. WADA is the top of medical science and sport science, and no body can challenge them. Nobody can say it is political negotion because even Russia with more political power was ejected off truck and field. It is Horton, Joshua and Palmer that shall be investigated once for any conspiracy.

then got found to be on drugs and had an 8 year ban :)

@@elasticpotato2974 i thought it was 3 years and tbh the accusation was a bit fishy. The ppl checking his blood were not following protocol. Ur supposed to have 2 officials from the olympic committee but one of the ppl checking sun yang was not from the committee. Sun yang noticed this and asked to check his work card showing that he was part of the committee and naturally the person didnt have one. Sun yang called his lawyer and his lawyer told him to not let the “officials” take his blood sample. This part is kinda weird: sun yang told them not to use the blood sample, to destroy the sample and take a new one with actual officials there. He would not let them test it until there were 2 officials present. Pretty normal. Then i assume there was some conflict or smt because he destroyed the bag and obviously it seemed like he was hiding smt so he got banned for three years. He could’ve appealed but his lawyer is pretty bad so he didn’t tell sun yang about appealing.

he took a banned stimulant for chest pains he was suffering. However, the substance he took is no longer on the banned substance list as of 2015. “to clarify, under the current list, Trimetazidine is currently prohibited in-competition only until the end of 2014. For the 2015 List, you will see it has moved (to) section S.4.5.” Essentially, trimetazidine has been reclassified and downgraded. As of January 1, it will not be on the banned stimulant list. And it is not performance enhancing SUN Yang did NOT cheat, it is the incompetence of the testing authorities who did not provide any credentials when collecting blood samples. This guy is innocent and he is very unlucky.

Not 31, 26-27 even.

dude...thats insane..

he is 1.98 I say, so that gives out 50/1.98=25.25, Which I would say a balanced even stroke in which to be more energy saving for the final sprint.

Qiuyuan Chen Wat do you mean with that calculation it makes no sense at all to me? I think you want to say that he dont need to swim so many strokes becouse he is tall. But I still dont understan the calculation. Anyway Its about arm span and shoe size and not how tall the person is. But tall persons more often have a bigger shoe size and wider armspan and thats why the reason why the best swimmers often is tall. But even if you calculate that it still makes no sense becouse its also about the body position and stroke technique. That can affect the number of strokes a lot.

The Arm span is almost equals or longer than body length which is common for swimmers. Thus each one of two stroke would give him a full body length of traveling or a bit more than that.
