Michael Phelps versus Milorad Cavic Video - 2008 Beijing Olympics

It’s crazy.  Michael Phelps won his seventh gold medal in the Beijing Olympics to tie Mark Spitz’s record.  Spitz called Phelps’ feat “epic”.  I don’t know if that’s the right word but I know I root for Michael Phelps.

The win is controversial though as Phelps won the 100 meter butterfly by a mere 0.01 second. It’s fun to watch swimming and it’s even more fun watching this particular event because Cavic protested the results.

Cavic, however, eventually conceded after super slow-mo replays.  It looks, though, that he is not whole-heartedly accepting the defeat.

Here’s a video of the event.  You won’t get the clear copy of the video in YouTube because of copyright issues.  I found a home video version of the swim event, nevertheless.  Enjoy:

    Check out the ultra slow-mo video at the end - ?avi? won this one. When I first saw the normal video, I actually thought that Phelps had done it, but after seeing it slowed down, there was no doubt in my mind - the gold was stolen. That’s a damn shame… Phelps is a great athlete, but he didn’t deserve this gold medal.
    Milorad ?avi? is a better swimmer in these types of events, and I’m sure he’ll beat Phelps (or whoever) next time.

    I also think something is suspicious here. Cavic would proof that next time.
