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!

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.

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. 😉

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.

If he had Dressel's start he easily could break the 46 barrier

Great analysis. However, swimming has so many more key points in the technique than only the catch.

I think we all saw this coming from him!

100% can get to the 45 second mark. He is still pretty young, and he has a lot of muscle to build
