These high school kids breaking world records never seemed like a huge deal until it got to the point that they were the same age as me
Wait till you're 5-10 years older than em
@Varun Pandit ehh, you only feel that way because you're focusing on those your age who have been able to reach such high levels. Keep in mind the majority of your childhood is dictated by your family and not yourself. Focusing on your regrets will not help you do what makes you happy
This is a big fat mood
Lmaooo same
@@SirFancyPants21Beautifully said!!
Imagine just being in high school and you look over to see her swimming in your heat lol
i go to the same school as her, and theres no pool here. if you want to swim, the swim club goes to the middle school with a pool.
kiribaby sorry let me correct myself.... Imagine being a middle schooler. You’re pretty confident in your abilities and you look over and see this WORLD RECORD HOLDER swimming right next to you.
But in all honesty, that would be really cool and you’d probably receive a bunch of advice
I saw her at my local sections championships last year, she’s like a celebrity in Minnesota
But what if she leads off your relay? "I better not screw up a 5 body length lead"
There's a video on You Tube someplace of me and Mark Spitz in the 100 fly in 1966. He was a sophomore, I was a senior, and he broke the national high school record. There are a number of world record holders in high school in our neck of the woods back then.
I can see why she broke the record. I have never seen a backstroke that clean and efficient.
SpaceQuack HD umm maybe he’s joking?
HAVE YOU EVER
Crazy how there’s a good gymnast called “Ragan Smith” as well
Mustaches May for a second I thought to myself, wasn't she doing gymnatic, not as crazy as I thought!
Evelyne charland I said the same thing! I was like hmm they spelled her name wrong and when did she start swimming lol
Evelyne charland 😂
B sameee
I love Ragan Smith
imagine going to highschool and someone asking what you did last week "oh yea just broke a world record wbu"
Yet if she met God, He wouldn't care about this WR. He'd be more impressed with some "loser" who fed a homeless guy
@@WhiteBraveheart1 Who hurt you?
@@donovanyeung2628 ?? Why would you think someone hurt me?
this girl that goes to my school broke a few world records for swim and set her own and is going to the Olympic trials and im like over here being hella slow in swim
@@mahipatel2165 I mean good for her!
Wasn't even close. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 Looked like a practice swim. You can just tell how much better n better the overall athlete is becoming. Dressel is also smashing record's.
Olympic Games in Atlanta 1996. Men's Swimming. Individual Gold medals in Men's Swimming.
2 USA Jeff Rouse. Brad Bridgewater. Tom Dolan. only (3) three gold medals.
1. RUS. Alexander Popov. Denis Pankratov. only (4) four gold medals.
Men's Swimming. Individual Gold medals in Men's Swimming. Olympic Games in Atlanta 1996 check: USA 🇺🇸 - RUS.🇷🇺. 3 - 4.
Putting Minnesota on the map!!! Shoutout to my fellow Minnesotans
🐻⬇️
She was in my city
Plymouth, MN checking in.
greatmemes92 It is great 👍 she is coming to Stanford.
greatmemes92 BOOYAH!
Okay so is this pool different. WR being shattered left and right.
serofibrinous no
That’s what I’m saying something fishy hear lol
And it's not like she was 4 meters ahead of the rest of the field. The pool must be shorter.
It’s a world championship meet, and the year before an olympics too. This trend happens, especially at such a large and intense international meet; times are dropping and records are falling :)
serofibrinous AMURICA that’s why
I've watched this video so many times I can't even count. I love this video so much and I want to be just like Regan Smith when I am her age. Even though she is only 3 years older than me, I still look up to her greatly!
The meatriding is crazy
i don’t care even a little bit about swimming or any sports in general, but,,, why am i crying????
same i actually got chills
My guess is your crying because you just watched an amazing athlete swim an amazing race, breaking a world record as a high schooler. I don’t care particularly for soccer or basketball but when I see an outstanding performance I respect the performance. Well done Miss Smith.
Her response was priceless! Congrats.
“If I can go 2:05” *goes **2:03*
HAVE YOU EVER
Another world record wow! Must be something in the water
Spi don’t try to discredit these swims
Wynaut Videos Swimmers*
@@wynautvideos4263 It's clearly a joke asswipe...
cause everyday it's getting colder
The announcer’s voice shattered my eardrums! Goodness! Good job Regan Smith! 🇺🇸🤩🏊♀️🥇
bruh wtf that is miles ahead of my time
World records generally are. Just use it as inspiration.
My team record is 2.07.49 (For the Girls) The boys record is a 1:48.00. But this is short course
@@tylerhuynh8620 I go a 2:08.9 for short corse
These titles are so funny. Next title: pulverized the record.
plowed the world record
Beat the world records meat
@@parkerbragg7093 JajajajaJAh 👽👾 🤖👻 👹 wtFuk ‼️ 🧚🎯 🗿🆗 JEEnyuss tho kuhBaamBAMM 🎃 ✨👻 👹
RECORD GETZ CLAPPT
Prison raped the record
I was finished with my Collegiate swimming before this kid was even born man I feel old. Well I guess I am old.
The police are now only 18 too.
the moment you realize that 'the old' is you ...lol
@@SeetheWorldIn360degrees exactly lol!
@@SeetheWorldIn360degrees
It hits you when everyone around you starts becoming younger lol.
It's like when you're 10 years old, 99% of people are older than you but then once you hit like 25 which is REAL mental adulthood, more and more people are younger around you.
@@MichaelP-ke1tm Agreed totally. Actually, at 25 still some people can 'blend in,' even date anyone of a legal age....even towards early 30's. Things really begin to accelerate/change when someone hits above 35😶 lol.
...the good thing is that everyone would experience it at some point
soooooooo freaking proud of Regan !!! she has accomplished so much and deserves it all !!! 💛
“have you EVER ?”
HAVE YOU EVER
This sort of record smashing by all, especially teenagers, does not happen in track and field.
@Owen Flynn True with running events, but not so much jumps and throws that are highly technical.
Swimming is generally much less explosive than running. Minor differences in technique and body shape also are much more impactful in swimming due to how much slower of a fluid water is vs air. It's fairly common to see women between 15-19 improve drastically as they often fully grow in height but not necessarily their bone structure and body shape. It's a bit less common for 15 year old men (i.e. Phelps is most recent 15 year old WR, which was in 2001). This is just one component to it though, like others mentioned too it's a bit less popular of a sport so the technique and strategy aren't quite as solidified.
Katelyn Touey is on track to do just that
except for sydney mclaughlin lol
@@lakeleaf9 Except Sydney hasn't broken a world record in anything. lol
i live in minnesota and lakeville north hs is known statewide for being absolutely amazing at sports
Wow! She'll be fun to watch at the Olympics
HAVE YOU EVER
She is ALSO one of the nicest people you would ever meet...very modest, sweet, smart, kind
4:18 excuse me what??
I think he was trying to say "she did it" lol
HAVE YOU EVER
Breaking records like a badass and I’m sitting on my couch being the potato I am😌😂
Wow. Good for her!! Can't wait to see her in the Olympics!!! GO USA!!
Swam in the same pool as Regan 🙏🏻🤩
Imagine your school record being the world record
Get it Reagan❤️ she looked smooth to effortlessly killed them and shattered that WR record
Wait that’s literally my name
I think that means you have the world record
HAVE YOU EVER
@@henrytheswimmer9453 lol
She went to the highschool we duel against every season
Regan's swim shoulders are so fire.
Her entire race was impressive! Why the late reaction? She snapped the entire time!! 🥶
Her reaction is priceless! Congrats
yes she is very amazing she is on the same team as me and i look up to her a lot
I love that you still see OG swedish goggles in the pool still ...
Lol I officiated Regan as a junior. Great to see her smashing success! Good luck in Tokyo!
Wow I had no idea what was going to happen in the video after reading the title
Stop complaining!!
We already know the result. It happened. It's factual.
Your personal knowing is irrelevant. Immaterial.
Get over yourself.
You are pertinent. Stop complaining about something so meaningless.
aren't pertinent*
Wow. I had no idea what kind of idiot I would find after dipping into the comments section.
You feel me?
@@christophershannon8734 I mean I would say that the result of a race is somewhat "meaningful", and is basically why I am watching the video.
Good one Dev!!!
Thanks!
Wow! Regan Smith is AMAZING!
When you realize you swam at the same facility that she swam at when you were younger. Wow! Way to go Regan!
She is going to be a star. She came out of nowhere to break that WR! Looks like we have some good replacements for Missy Franklin
Genuine shock! Everyone’s talking about the youth movement, but we are seeing it as we speak!
The second coming of Krisztina Egerszegi - what a talent!
Can’t wait to see her at the Olympics!
All the other swimmers out there with like at least 60 dollar goggles, and Reagan Smith out there with the 20 dollar vanquishers
Congratulations, Regan Smith!
I swam with Regan back in the day... Now she broke a world record and I play video games all day...
Lane 4 needs to be tested for steroids. Every world record been broke in that lane.
🤔
That's because they put the lowest seeded time athlete in 4 then the next slowest in 5 then 3, 6, etc. It would be strange if WR's were being broken out of lane 4.
@@kevinb2145 thanks. Didn't know they did that. Just noticed it was lane 4 having the luck. I guess not luck now that I know that.
@@kevinb2145 he was making a joke.
Lane 4 and 5 are assigned to the best times of the semi-finals, which is why the records are there
Next olympics is going to be amazing..
Geez she left that record in the dust too. My goodness.
all these records being broken now.. new generation upon us incoming
lowkey thought they were talking bout the gymnast reagan smith😂
Fr..lol
Bailey Hernandez Me too. I was like, when did she switch to swimming? 😂
same lol
I'm crying rn because of how happy I am
17 is young don’t get me wrong, but I remember when Ledecky won Olympic gold at 15 years old.
4:18 what is the guy even saying at this point lmao
SHEDIDITTT
WAY TO GO REGAN!!! THANKS FOR REPRESENTING RIPTIDE AND MINNESOTA!!!!!
200 backstroke is so hard. By the end you leave with your arms burning and your legs wobbly.
Butterfly and backstroke are way harder
Backstroke was always my favorite! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
As a breastroker, that stroke is my worst nightmare
DhruvPlayz_YT - 😂😂😂
the secret in number 9 in 2009 & 2019 there were alot of world records smashed
Why do they look so calm but when I sprint back you can hear me breathing hard.
Outstanding... Congratulations Megan! Another gold for team USA.
The rising voice of rowdy gaines can make me cry
Wow! Regan, Simone, Katie in 2020 for the USA women's team!
no, we have never 😂
HAVE YOU EVER
she's a legend in the making. shes going to get so many golds at Olympics tokyo 2020.
Uhm..
Regan Smith is only 17 years old. She just broke a world record. NBD. Incredible
Congratulations young lady!
Rowdy Gaines! Great announcing and yes, we did find our new star! I hope she does come to Stanford. Go Tall Trees!
Records are meant to be broken good job
The new queen of backstroke ❤️
could you imagine swimming against her in high school! like she is a world record holder as a senior in high school.
I pissed in the same pool as Regan
JEEnyuss tho kuhBaamBAMM ‼️😜 🤑☣️ OMFGAWD‼️😜 🤑 wtFuk ‼️ 🧚
Ad must Velchr Wtf did you have a seizure
Kaylee McKeown 🤙
at first i thought they meant ragan smith the olympic gymnast and i was like “she swims?!” and then i realized they meant regan smith the olympic swimmer ..
Kirsty Coventry - missy Franklin - regan smith 😎
How are all of these records going down in this pool? This is insanity!!!!
Unfair advantage...The pool must be tilted so they are swimming downhill.....Congrats Ms. Smith!!!
@@Roldanr72 she has to swim uphill twice tho :)
HAVE YOU EVER
Fantastic job, Regan! 🥇🇺🇸
I’m watching swimming during Olympic off season? Oh wait, it was in my TH-cam recommended
Lmao Smith goes to my school
Most exciting 200 back execution ever !!!! what a swim
Awesome swim...she swam so smoothly
I'm so happy! Congratulations 👏👏👏
This awesome. It is sad for the old legends like Phelps, missy, etc
Are you kidding Phelps Hes a legend always will be
Minnesota teen that got 2nd to simone biles, and now another Minnesota teen has broken a world record.
i know this girl. she’s very sweet. a little upset i wasn’t friends with her on the team
Rowdy Gaines freakin’ loves swimming
it’s cringe
@@billybob6604 that’s because he is in the usa swimming hall of fame and is an olympian.
Nobody:
Absolutely Nobody:
Rowdy: 4:19
*G I D I A N*
if she can break missy franklin’s wr with vanquishers, u can beat that club record
So sad she missed this event going to tokyo.
We love her🥰🇺🇸👏🏼
lane number 4 is full of crazy record this year
Less than a second and the record was "shattered"
You mark my word. In a month or so, there's going to be some conspiracy about why these records are being broken. The water, the suits, the atmosphere, oxygen being pumped into the arena, whatever lol
No there won't be. Natural progression of talent plus pre Olympic year.
No, not at all. Look at the history of the sport. If you followed it, you would know this is normal.
Mark...deeez NUTTz‼️🤑🤬🤫☮️☮️
The pool being filled with saltwater... Maybe xD
What an introduction to the world. Wow
This is really irrelevant, but my second cousin Audriana Fitzmoris who is on the Stanford women’s volleyball team is at Stanford
seriously this is freaking insane!
God bless America!!!
God help America!!
Another great young athlete who will.conquer tokyo 2020
Olympics.. the ultimate swim meet
spectator wise. world c'ships and olympics are held in the same regard by the competing swimmers
Nice to see that some athletes still find it a positive to compete on behalf of their country! Rewarded!
