To put this in perspective - Dressel just dumped a half second off of the 50 yard free record. HALF A SECOND. That's insane in this event. Unheard of. This is bigger than what Bolt lopped off the 100m. He Just buried this record under a layer of concrete

I still remember when I was in high school hearing about David Fox going 19.14. My high school best was 22.54. I was fast enough to win three straight conference championships but never once finished in the top 6 at state. I was 5’11” and 155 pounds. I didn’t swim after high school. Seeing the size of the swimmers and the times they were swimming was somewhere between humbling, humiliating and frightening. A 17.63 is wack! Dressel is the perfect sprinter. It’s controlled fury with perfect technique. He’s the spasmanian devil with perfect form. If watching that doesn’t make your hairs stand up you might be a zombie. 17 freaking 63?!?

Seriously most impressive swim ever

Based on his speed if he was in a 25meters pool he could be the 1st person in 19sec 50yards=45.72m divided by 17.63sec gives 2.593 meters/sec In 1sec more he would have covered 48.3meters so 1.7meters extra needs 0.75sec My estimation is that he could do that in ~19.5 while WR is 20.26
