Some more info:
1. Reaction times are measured when feet leave the block
2. It’s actually spelled Caeleb (🫢)

Not only are swimmers amazing athletes, the elite swimmers always have crazy physiques too

[MrErinholbert]

That’s what The Olympics and sport are to be. A celebration to friendship and sportsmanship.

“I just broke the World record but this dude, he got a new personal best!”

[rensins]

I wish all men were this caring, comfortable with themselves & compassionate. The world would look so much different than today

[nicholascarlin]

I was on the team with him at UF and this dude is an absolute unit of a human. Football players and their conditioning coaches would watch him in the weight room cause his strength and explosive power was unparalleled

[earlymorningcoffeeatam]

As a swimmer myself, I will say there have been many times I’ve walked over to a guy I swam against to congratulate him, breaking a personal best is a big think in swim, like a big thing. And it always makes someone’s day! ❤

I was lucky enough to meet him a few years back since he was visiting my old team. My man is super humble and made a lot of us younger swimmers more confident in ourselves and was really understanding.

He even jokingly (I think) yelled at our coach for a set he had us do (I think I was 13 at the time) that set being 5000 yards every third 25 butterfly. That made us feel really good since the coach made him do the same set without the fly, everyone was like “we work harder than Caleb Dressell!”

"I may have just got the best time in history, but this man got the best time for himself, and THATS progression!"

[simonbenyi]

as a hungarian this was especially heartwarming to see

[mocerlaalacbaino]

That's so admirable bro. That's extremely gentlemanly

[jodiehawkes]

Caleb dressel is honestly one of the best swimmers and most genuinely wholesome athletes to ever exist. I loved watching him compete in Tokyo

[Who_asked_you]

I remember meeting him and swimming with him he was very kind to me and my team even though I had lost the passion for swimming

[lilmisssinz]

Bro broke the world record but still congratulated the dude on a new PB what a guy

[Richeytherich]

Pure class, swimming is the one sport you see nothing but sportsmanship

[vivib]

Aww, I'm Hungarian, just like Milák Kristóf, and I was so pleased to see it! And congrats to world-record breaker! It's truly amazing! 😊

[sacyrus]

“yoooo you got a personal best, nice!”

“but… you just broke a world record?”

“yeah but you got a personal best :)”

[johnfox]

Amazing. Also, a true gentleman. Congratulations to him!!

[markalexander-warne]

Good sportsmanship is so undervalued. So is empathy.

[isabellanix]

As a young competitive swimmer, this is heartwarming to see. ❤
