These commentators are so good to the slower sprinters, pointing out where they can improve and what they're doing well. As opposed to Eric Mousambani where the commentators where incredibly disrespectful.
@CoDWiiPS3Gameplay you are soooo right. I was furious on how the crowd and commentators where behaving. It was a real disgrace seeing how ignorant people are
+Duc Huy Ly They dive in at the buzzer. The audio's out of sync with the video a little. You can tell because you hear the splash from them diving in before you see it in the video.
The first heat is just pathetic. The Olympic standard time of 2012 is 50.03. Those that have a time of 51.5s are denied entry while those who have 57s are in.
I did mostly 50m but for 100m i did sub-50s when I was 18 and qualified for the us open. so all the "i'm xx yrs old and did ___" - i was faster than all of you and still peaked without reaching the top. sorry, you're not all that exceptional. there is a physical limit in the end.
It is quite interesting to see all of the heats at the Olympics, you never get to see that on television.

The only thing i hate about swimming videos is the comment section...
"I'm 4 and i swim 8.52 seconds 500m butterfly"
+MrWebon YES!!!!!!!!
+MrWebon im 4 i run 10s in 100 butterfly
+MrWebon Pff... i'm 2 and i do it in 7.89
Lukas Q Yeah... freestyle doesn't count, also we all know that 7.92 is the world record for a 1 year old. I'm talking about butterfly.
You guys are joking right
Four years later, Timmers will be silver medalist.
Commentator repeatedly mistaking Maldives for Moldova on the first heat, oh dear...😂
Was a bit confused when he said Africa vs Europe😂
9:29 KEBBAB

Why do they have to way a couple of seconds after the beep before starting the race? Enlighten me please...
+Duc Huy Ly They dive in at the buzzer. The audio's out of sync with the video a little. You can tell because you hear the splash from them diving in before you see it in the video.
He confused the Maldives with Moldova, Guatemala with Guam, and the USVI with BVI.

Tristan Verheecke these men are from small countries that have less than 10 pools in their whole nation
I scared of swimming because I breath with my mouth😢😰
+steps forward and they breath with what ? gills?
U never know what happens under water 😤
steps forward ahah what ? you can literally see their mouths
I don't know much about this
what does "heats" mean?
+Hoang Anh Nguyen Heats are each qualification race. There are many heats as there are more athletes at that stage than there are lanes in the pool.
There a re a lot of swimmers to begin with, so there are many heats before, like, the final day. So basically, people are gradually eliminated.
But why do they use 8 lanes? there are 10 lanes
Heats = Preliminaries = Qualification round.
Didier van Leewen The lanes from the sides have too much drag cause of the waves and the walls, so they don't use them
HUSAM SHOUD WIN

I hate freestile. I an swim amazing back and breast meedium fly but terrible free
me TOOO
I-..I'm only watching this bc of an anime called free iwatobi swim club..
how come the first heat had 4 swimmers?
something to do with qualifing times arranged in groups
They only had a certain amount of swimmers in the event, it’s almost never perfectly full and those 4 were the outsiders
Hearing these commentators butcher Caribbean island mames is frustrating... it's pronounced GREN-AID-A
