Those trailblazing Japanese have led the way in so much: swimming science, electronics, cars, and so much more. Bravo, Japan!!
I always appreciate the Japanese.... Their passion and the way the do things.... they performed and do it whole heartedly..... Japanese constantly made Japan proud.....
I would be interested in the history of the flip turn. I see videos in the 1950s showing some using it, others not. Wikipedia credits Al Vande Weghe in the 30s. I can’t find any footage of him demonstrating the new technique and who were the first adopt it. This is probably as important as the Fosbury flop is to the high jump.
This video is comedy gold. When he threw the camera I- can’t even😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣🤣

Wow, Congratulations to the Japanese Swimming champions and their coaches! Its a sad thing that their secrets were revealed and copies by their competitors. But at least, they have proved that they can beat the Americans in a very unique way.
Japanese is about optimization.

I saw that they along with the Chinese were top ranked for walk-races in 2020 [2021] but a couple of Italians won either the 20k and 50k races, if I recall half correctly.
It would be so much fun to go back in time and just dominate with all the things we know today and all the items we have available to us today.

If I was born a Japanese person, I'll be proud too being a Japanese. I was stationed in Japan for more than a decade of my military career. I've seen and experienced their culture, their tradition, their technology, their work ethics and their self-discipline. And for that, I can say the Japanese are just brilliant and genius with anything and everything they put their mind, heart and soul to it.

You could say this was the dawn of sports science. Yes, the strength of individuals counts but the technique is just as important. Japanese took advantage of being the first but the rest of the world soon followed and caught Japan.

@@blackjackreward4456 I'm not sure you have understood what this video is all about. It wasn't the swimmers themselves who discovered these refinements. The Japanese took a scientific approach to analyzing stroke mechanics and then coached what they had learned. Talent doesn't develop in a vacuum, and no one reaches an elite level in the sport, capable of setting world records and winning Olympic medals, without considerable support and resources.
You know this explains how the Japanese do so well in events, they have used sports science to win events they are not really great at.
@blackjackreward4456

Correction, the fact that they won so convincingly in 1932 makes them really great at it. Conversely, you could argue that the US team was really never that great in that era, because they ultimately lost to superior performances.
The economic depression was in full swing in 1932. That also contributed to fewer amateur athletes.
wow
science, a ba zu re!

Sorry Michael Phelps. Here come some Asians that also cannot get close
It is not the "free"style swimming ,it is called crawl
my question is, why didn't they wear goggles or swim caps?
