How do you describe a swimming competition where a team broke world record during the heats and 5 teams broke the world record again in the final?
This happened at the water cube, where Men’s 4×100 metre freestyle relay took place. In the heats, the USA team set a world record without Michael Phelps. France and Australia also went faster than the old record. During the heats, all five of the continental records were broken.
In the final, USA, France, Australia, Italy and Sweden teams all finished within the World Record time set in the heats. I can imagine how crazy it was in the Water Cube. Everyone must be shouting, celebrating "faster, higher, better"!
