Swimming Men's 50m Freestyle - Heats Full Replay from the Aquatics Centre at the London 2012 Olympic Games. -- 2 August 2012
Swimming has featured on the programme of all editions of the Games since 1896. The very first Olympic events were freestyle (crawl) or breaststroke. Backstroke was added in 1904.
In the 1940s, breaststrokers discovered that they could go faster by bringing both arms forward over their heads. This practice was immediately forbidden in breaststroke, but gave birth to butterfly, whose first official appearance was at the 1956 Games in Melbourne. This style is now one of the four strokes used in competition.
Women's swimming became Olympic in 1912 at the Stockholm Games. Since then, it has been part of every edition of the Games. The men's and women's programmes are almost identical, as they contain the same number of events, with only one difference: the freestyle distance is 800 metres for women and 1,500 metres for men.

Who else got annoyed when audio and visual didn’t line up
Watching the first few heats and looking at the times, by comparison to the average swimmer these guys are fast and people would love to have times like these. Of course they are slow by the Olympic champions standards and I am faster but these guys come from countries with a much much lower standard of training equipment and coaching, some from really disadvantaged countries, yet they can do better than many of the masters and swimmers in the richer countries. Personally, saying that you are faster and did 19.6 and you’re a tadpole or something is just diminishing the effort and commitment that these athletes go through, many of whom probably hold down jobs alongside training whereas Michael Phelps solely trained. These guys deserve as much if not more admiration and respect than the champions and they should serve as an inspiration for us all, that no matter who or where you are, hard work pays off.
Why theres only have three contestans ?
Sound and picture is not in-sync.
Why is the audio out of sync
Nassif in the first heat did very, very well. He was fired up with that time also! Deservingly so.
But didn't qualify 😕
It's too bad they never uploaded the heats for the Rio Olympics. They uploaded all their footage from London, why did they stop?
César Cielo e Bruno Fratus dois medalhistas olímpicos do Brasil.
My fly be winning heat one
Rhyyys Sharrrp If you were faster than heat 1 in fly you probably be swimming in Arena pro series but not, idiot
Daniel Cavalier your the idiot you dont have a clue what your on about xD
@@77Original that's meters not yards. There's difference
@@kaikatcruz since when did anybody talk about yards ?
@@77Original me...
The first heat though😂😂
What they were rly fast
@@leonduarte570 Dude, I have beat those times.
@@maitreytelang2312 yeah but that its no reason to laugh

1- They have at least swam in the Olympics, thing you will never do.
2-They come from countries with very low resources so ... respect bro.
Any male teenager who practises 3 hours a week for 3 years will be able to finish 50m in less than 28s. It's not that difficult.
Omg i remember watching this
音ズレの訪れ
That guy from Central African Republic in heat 1 looks like he is from China or Korea or Japan
I could do be in heat 4
The swimmers in the first 2 heats will fail to qualify to the final of inter-school competitions in my country, and my country has a grand total of 2 olympics swimming medals in the history of the game. It's unfair to those who have much better time but denied entry into olympics.
Ervin is the worst starting but the fastest swimming
who are the commentators ?
It's the editing
I could be in heat 3
lol
My 200m is faster than the first heat....
In sprinting
in running ?
Solsist Roblox Even 200m wr in sprinting is faster than the wr in 50 free
how did a guy that got 30sek + go to the olympics? his form was the worst.. was the first heat for like special people?
Hey if you don't know it's the best from there country, doesn't mean they are that good by Olympic standards, just best from there country
Also they got a wildcard entry for international experience
@@heathermyrer3343 how come I don’t see my country, they are much faster than them....
Wildcard, theres not so many swimmer from africa thats why they got the entry by wildcard
its crazy how bad these swimmers from africa are. (I live in kenya ) and I could find swimmers that are much faster than them
So you'd beat Le Clos?
If my time was 23s and denied entry into Olympics, I'd be pretty pissed to see swimmers allowed entry with a time of 27s
I do 30.9 and I'm 11
Jamie Cleaver veryyy gooood
im 1 and I go 14
These are the comments I really hate, nobody cares, it’s not really fast and isn’t relevant to the vid so stfu
In my state, that’s not even a zone qualifying time, so it’s not a great time.
Romannn we talkin yards or meters
I do 38.88 and I’m only 11
IAM 11 and do 31.48
I am 5 and I do 20.11
@@FatherOf0fucks f u
I'm 11 too and I do 42:70 :)
i am 7 i do 11
the people at the first heats... were they like cripled? how did they make it to the olympics? they have worse form than a drowning horse
***** why does that qualify them? People in my country need to get a certain time to be able to swim there
***** ahhh okay
+Kristjan It's so that people from different countries can participate. I like that the Olympics allows these people to compete. It could make more people in lesser developed countries have an interest in these sports. It's not all about winning.
Even the kids from the first heat are better than 99% of the world population. And they probably dn't have access to great facilities like you do.
I’d probably be in heat 2
