David Popovic is the name to dominate the world for decades. My friend is a Romanian and they are all so proud of him. Good luck champ for your future🙏🙏🙏
I cry !!! This boy is our national treasure!! God bless him!! Humble, educated, hard working, amazing!! David te iubim!! David we love you!! Send you hugs from România!! And thank you for the video!! Este minunat acest băiat!!😍🇹🇩🇹🇩🇹🇩
We are so proud of him! The romanian torpedo. Imagine that the previous world record was done by wearing some special swimming suit that was banned later and David Popovici has done it without it at only 17 years old. Mind blowing!
@@dorianih2786 Haha. If you search for his Facebook page you’ll see that he posted a video in which he “transforms” into a torpedo so he kinda likes that nickname. I don’t see that nickname disrespectful, I see it like a metaphore for his performance and skills. Chill out next time, ok?
EXTRAORDINARY ANALYSIS. ..THIS RECORD IS ASTONISHING AND REALLY BEAUTIFULL....IT SEEMS EASY BECAUSE THE LEVEL OF PERFECTION. . REALLY BEAUTIFULL TO SEE....THANKS.
Strong summary by time split. David said he will change the way of swimming, so he did it and not only because he broke the 100 WR but now all top swimers will go less to gym and do more technique improvement. 😉
Without words. It is the best now and for many years to come. Congratulations David Popovici... He is an example for young people all over the world. From now on, David Popovici no longer belongs to a nation but to the whole world.
Thank you for your video. I don't know where his records will stop, but i do know that he is a phenomenon who will be very hard to ever beat. He has it all, including character. And he is just 17 years old, but his star is already the brightest star of all in the swim world. I am sure that our romanian gold rocket will make history in the swim world and not only. And everybody will love him like we do. Because he deserve it.
So so happy he beat that Cielo Supersuit era record..so sick of those inflated records! Yay.. now when is Dressel coming back to race him?? At 17 he can do sub 46..
Can he swim sub-46? Yes, but he risks losing the wonderful sweet spot of strength-weight ratio that he enjoys as a teenager. Thorpe set the 400 record as a 17-year old, if I'm not mistaken, and he improved it, so David can as well. But David is so long and light right now. What happens when his bones get denser? He'll probably grow another inch as well. Who knows? Dressel seems to have peaked, but then Ervin wins 50-gold as a 35-year old. Advantages: long arms, great stroke, light weight, amazing mental approach and maturity. To be fair, other young swimmers have set WRs and shocked the world, and some sustain that level of mastery, but David has the body to be the Usain Bolt of competitive swimming. Cielo peaked at age 22 -- two WRs, including the one David broke -- and had knee surgeries (patellar tendons) before his 26th birthday. I'm just ruminating. I think the more provocative question is how much he will expand his repertoire to include the 400.
Totally agree, which is why we are going to do a full breakdown of his stroke and technique when we have more time and are not in the middle of covering a major meet!
yeah 1:42.0 is much more challenging. the next best ever in the 200 free is 0.96 slower, and only two other people have ever been within 1.5s of that record. in textile, only two people have ever been within 2 seconds of it. the 100 free had several men swimming 46.9-47.1, most of them textile. so that record was much easier
Cum a reusit? Ca e un roman bun de tot. Ca a muncit foarte mult. Ca este disciplinat. Ca stie ce vrea. Acum scuzati expresia: ca e dat dreq (in sensul ala bun). Si noi il iubim pentru asta!
For a 100m race, why is it not more popular to use the full 15m they allow you for underwaters? They pop up around just 7-8m off the wall on the second 50.
Same League of Thorpe and Sun Yang, but not same beauty. Given it’s 17… yes, i think he’ll probably break Thorpie’s 400 wr, but i still can’t see him going 1.41 in 200
@@PropulsionSwimming yeah like I said with the 22 as he did in the first 50 do it in both 50’s it is very possible trust me I think he can I’m a swimmer myself
We romanians are so stupids that have put as a SPORTS MINISTER, a hungarian etnic called Eduard Novak. This guy struggles a lot to hide his nationalist-hungarian hate that he has on Anything that's romanian. He proved it (his hate) in many times, like when he didn't wanted to sing romanian national anthem. HE DIDN'T WANTED TO! Now, mr. Novak is hiding and crying out of spite because romanian sportsmen are all over the place with some good results.
Pop/a is 100% Romanian name for Pope - Papa in Latin, just like Stoic-Stoica is a another Slavicized, then Serbianized name, like many more East Roman, Proto-Romanian names. Also that -ici at the end doesn't mean that his fathers family was Serbian, while they never claimed to be anything but Romanians. Most like them (1-2% in Ro) could have migrated from Serbia as Vlachs of Serbianzied names, as it happened a lot in the last 7-800 years recorded history, in order to preserve ethnic identity. Unlike Serbians, Romanians never changed anyone's names or ethnicity and the real Serbs are still Serbs, always had church and education in their own language. Unlike a Serbianzed former Vlach Romanian family named Tesla, which luckily didn't become some Teslic, due to being located in areas under Croatia, known before as "Mala Vlashka" - Little Valahia.. So cut the bull pls, most of your nation were indigenous former Daco - Romans, known as Vlachs, assimilated as Serbs due to being Orthodox in NW Balkans, unlike Morlach Catholics, registered as Croats, or Muslims as Bosanaks. Your Rascians assimilated indigenous majority of former Romans, officially Orthodox Romans since 451 AD second council of Chalcedon. Learn your history before you talk.
NEXT UP THE 200M FREE WR 🤯
In my heart Phelps still holds the 200 WR and Thorpe the 400 WR... Beidermann was suit doping

Stop putting idiots nicknames. He’s just David a unique talented guy. Grow up.
@@dorianih2786 chill out dude jeez. your unprompted anger tells us you need to "grow up." nothing wrong with nicknames
Dressel came close with a shittier suit.

@@dorianih2786 He even calls himself Chlorine Daddy
Beautiful analysis of the race ... I don't know much about swimming but David seems to become an international phenomenon
He is not swimming he is flying!! how can you swim 100m in 46.86 sec?? and he's only 17...😲😲
Power of the God.
Angel on the wather David Popovici.
Un enorm respect din partea mea.
Hai Romania!!!!
Power of Popovici, not god, lmao.

thx for the vod.
That was sick
FELICITARI DAVID !
Amazing swimmer. Felicitari David Popovici!
David te iubim!! David we love you!! Send you hugs from România!!
Insane! Bravo young sir!
Thx for video !
FELICITĂRI DAVID.
Good commentary pal!!

If he had Dressel's start he easily could break the 46 barrier
New to this channel. Good work. I like your enthusiasm for swimming.
Romania is proud of its achievements
This is not Romania’s achievement. This is one individual, his parents and his coach.
@@blindcynic maybe not Romania's achievement but Romania and all romanians can be proud of this wonderfull boy. Can't wait for Paris 2024!
Romania did nothing for his achivements!!
@@andraiuliabogdan1 who said it did ?
@@andraiuliabogdan1 he had these achievements mainly because not pretending support from Romania or anyone else.
Yep, he can do it! Good luck DP!
100% can get to the 45 second mark. He is still pretty young, and he has a lot of muscle to build
Have you ever been on a pool?
@@jaassil He def isn't getting a 45. Although a sub 46.5 is possible.
Time will tell if actually his slim build is the secret for him
I think we all saw this coming from him!
Felicitări, David! ❤️🇷🇴❤️
Great analysis. However, swimming has so many more key points in the technique than only the catch.
Totally agree, which is why we are going to do a full breakdown of his stroke and technique when we have more time and are not in the middle of covering a major meet!
@@PropulsionSwimming ... And more/better telly coverage. The whole game is the underwater view.
We will be hunting down the best shots!
@@PropulsionSwimming There are like 13s of easy speed underwater footage in the 200m semifinal: th-cam.com/video/S8BdTJmaCbU/w-d-xo.html
Hey, been watching Popovici semifinals 200m free. Lots of seconds of video underwater. Definitely deserves it to examine it.
Simply the BEST
Awesome!!!!!
Fantastic 🔝💯🙏😊🏃👏👏😊🏊♂️🍀
Optimal performance originates in the mind.
Fantastic!
Damn.. A child prodigy. He's about to take down the 200m free world record too I guess.
Let's not jinx it. That 1:42:00 is a lot harder than the 46:91.
No. He wont. 1:42:00 on 200m is not for him right now.
yeah 1:42.0 is much more challenging. the next best ever in the 200 free is 0.96 slower, and only two other people have ever been within 1.5s of that record. in textile, only two people have ever been within 2 seconds of it. the 100 free had several men swimming 46.9-47.1, most of them textile. so that record was much easier
And he did it!
@@lidiatanasescu4807 He did not. Do understand that to beat 1:42:00 he had to
do 1:41:99 or faster? 😳
Hello big fan sir
Cum a reusit? Ca e un roman bun de tot. Ca a muncit foarte mult. Ca este disciplinat. Ca stie ce vrea. Acum scuzati expresia: ca e dat dreq (in sensul ala bun). Si noi il iubim pentru asta!
A reusit pentru ca e roman? Romanii au genetica speciala sau sunt mai speciali ca altii :))
AMAZING! ✨🏆🥇
Recovery stroke reminds me of Alex Popov, looked impossibly slow but the distance per stroke left everyone in the dust (or waves)
100%
Thanks! He is fast!
When his career is over we might look at 46.5 in the 100 and 1:41.7 in 200 free
1.41.7 🤯
200m world record is harder to be broke. I think Popovic might be able to beak it but in 2 years, still too young.
Good👍👍👍
NEXT USAIN BOLT IN WATHER
How Popovici broke the WR:
He swam fast 😂
I think in 2 years David it will break 45 seconds in 100 meters.
For a 100m race, why is it not more popular to use the full 15m they allow you for underwaters? They pop up around just 7-8m off the wall on the second 50.
For the shorter distances it's more beneficial to get into your stroke and gain momentum earlier as this helps with the rest of the length
I hope Romania can have somebody like David in Politics. I wish David Popovici a long life in breaking records
The best freestylers have that wide catch on the non breathing side
just like agnel, who swam 1:43.1 textile with that technique
ALL THAT HE WIN IS ONLY BECAUSE HE WORKS FOR THIS ❤
Uh, it's not "Popovich" but "PopoVICI." But we understand the Freudian slip of the former Russian great.
Nope. He himself pronounces it 'Popovich'
Its Popovich, the last i is silent. Popovici is a common surname in Romania
46 will go down next year, he will get to 45 in three years
Don't worry,next year at Rome he will be braking (record) again big time!
5:24 Next year(2023) it’s going to be only Fukuoka(Japan),in July ,World Championships.
Same League of Thorpe and Sun Yang, but not same beauty. Given it’s 17… yes, i think he’ll probably break Thorpie’s 400 wr, but i still can’t see him going 1.41 in 200
Milak had a chance to level Popovici's time if he had a nice stronger kick.
🥇👋🇷🇴
Cesar Cielo is Brazilian not Italian, Both c in Cesar and c in Cielo are pronounced as s.
100в.ст Девід Поповіч

Watch milaks kicks on the 2nd lap almost none.....imagine He aus popovicis kick
David you just wait I'm going to run you down with my Team.
Îl ajută mult mentalul sau
I think he could go 44 or 43 with a 22 each 50 like he did on his first one
You reckon he'll lower the World Record by 3 seconds?!
@@PropulsionSwimming yeah like I said with the 22 as he did in the first 50 do it in both 50’s it is very possible trust me I think he can I’m a swimmer myself
When do you predict he can achieve this?
@@PropulsionSwimming idk man maybe like 2-3 years if he stills swims then
🇹🇩🇹🇩🇹🇩 torpédo
I don't think 45.98 will succeed.
I'm SURE it makes 45.89 😈 for the next 35 years 😈 he is "Sebastian Loeb" on water.
