  • great video ;)

  • very inspirational...!!!

  • very nice.. i hope he does IT!!!

  • An amazing vid of the best swimmer ever with the music from LP! AWESOME!!!

  • Ciello already proved he is among them, but nobody commented...mkt is everything

  • Celio already proved he is among them, but nobody commented...mkt is everything

  • what suit does ian thorpe use? or used like the full body

  • Michael is not better than thorpe, and on this olympics he won 8 medals because he didn't have the concurency from 2004...and yes also he did't won 100 m fly

  • THE BEST SWIMMER EVER

  • michael phelps

  • Milorad Cavic is the best.

  • i really think if he didnt retire and just kept focusing more on training and speed he would prolly rival phelps

  • he already did and was better than him. not anymore

  • i find it really sad that there are AWESOME people like him, that dont get any attention because michael phleps took a few more gold medals. so what. i no micheal is great, but so are people like ian and nobodys even heard of him. SAD!!!!

  • Nobody outside of swimming has heard of him in America. But, go to Australia and ask about Ian Thorpe. He is HUGE there, and has made a ton of money.

  • i think 8 gold medals in one olympics is something great, true there are other great ones, but phelps has surpassed them... Ian deserves his greatness so does Phelps

  • Love this video!

    I always see it before I race :D

  • ¿what this the song?

  • Linkin Park - Pushing Me Away

  • WOW that was an amazing video

    Ian torphe is really great

    but I still love michael phelps :)

  • Incredible video of an incrediblle athlete and person! Ian's swimming technique is second to NO ONE.

  • I love swimming, this guy challenged me to a swimming sprint race over 100m in the school pool tomorrow so im trying to make sure I got my technique spot on so i can thrash him, but I'm no way near as good as any of the greats such as Thorpe, hell maybe one day...

  • great video, great champion, great song

    5* thanx!!

  • Ian is a monster like Phelps! They don´t need comparations. Thanks for the video!

  • Nice video, cool song! Thanks. I love Ian Thorpe. :)

  • ian thorpe rimarrà nlla storia ragazzi!!!!!!qnd c mette la gamba lui nn lo prende nessuno!!!!!

  • Yeah that is the Australian guy that makes more money in one day than you and your family together in 10 years... yeap that is him!

    Oh well there's no law on youtube to ban idiotic peasants.

    Maybe it's because you realize you've got nothing to offer the world in the form of brains or talent.

    Have a great day!

  • well thats obvious that he makes more money. thanks for pointing out hte obvious i think what hellangel guy was saying is that americans dont really follow swimming except for phelps so thorpe isnt really known here

  • vsmitty90

    Hellangel comment was stupid and pejorative.

    A post like that deserves an answer in the same caliber

    You tell me he does not know Thorpe? then what is he doing watching this video?

    Now; Americans do not know Thorpe?? That is a implausible and rather dumb comment

  • its true americans unless your really into swimming dont know thorpe, i know their like celebs over their but if you were to ask a random american who ian thorpe is they would have no idea

  • Saad... anyhow you seem like nice person and you know about swimming so look after yourself and:

    Have a nice day!

  • HellAngel756..... He is from Australia and not from Australlia.... have you ever been in a place named school?.... they teach people how to read and write and I think you should try it!

  • LINKINPARK!!!

  • unreal

  • come si kiama la canzone in qst video?

  • come si kiama la canzone in qst video????

  • I miss thorpe in the pool and beating park teh wan in 400 free :(:(

  • m8..thorpe beat phelps in the 400m freestyle in athens and won the gold so suck on that

    but i gotta say phelps is wonderful

  • Which he did every time they competed against each other.

  • wow....that's....i don't know,he's the greatest and although that,he's still very nervous before race... :)

  • lmfao you guys are dumb he has a illness that why he is so cocky

  • great video but why the fuck do everybody think that video would be so much more cooler with the linking park song?? Linkinpark sux!

  • nice video

  • whot is the title of the song?

  • linkin park-pushing me away

  • simplemente el mejor mas pork es

    alergico al cloro q huevos para nadar asi

  • calm down man... ur screen name IS HOMO. I'm living in los angeles now and I've heard how american broadcaster makes a big deal of what Ian said... if u actually watch his interview w/ Australian tv.. he complimented Phelps's accomplishment... dont be such a "jerk" as u americans love say it!!!

  • i dont say this as a derrogatory statement but was he really gay or was that just a rumor. Either way he was a stud in the pool

  • i still cry when i see him swimming on the videos...:_( i miss u so much Ian, come back plz!!

  • Ian thorpe forever and very nice vid man

  • He has an unique technique, really good for long distances (the famous high elbow)

  • I agree with sinnerzinho... no way your fans will forget you ;)

  • Ian Thorpe forever, you'll never be forgotten \m/

  • Tell us more supersmash43 : so that's all it takes ?

    If your friend's 400 pounds & cannot run from one street corner to the other..

  • which is the song of the video called?

  • TW@

  • Linkin Park - Pushing Me Away

  • muy buen video con su cacnion, estan las imagenes mas conocidas de Thorpe, que perdida para el mundo de la natacion que este gran nadador no siga asombrandonos.

  • altro ke nuoto pinnato

  • u know sometimes i get mad that ill never be able to get there not even with all my hard swimming ive been doing since childhood because im not as tall as the standars and wont be :( h well :D

  • Great video, Ian is awesome

  • Certainly among the top-3 most exciting sport & athletes

  • he's got more looks than Phelps, but Phelps is still the better swimmer with the better body.

    Phelps better take the gold this summer...

  • Is it true that Thorpe retired to avoid allegations of a homosexual affair with one of his relay teammates?

  • Douker, I also heard that Celine Dion is in fact a lesbian hooked on cocaine. Must be true...

  • You heard that too?

  • Cool video :)

  • i agree with maviebro))

  • Quest'uomo è un dio *-*

  • ... an impeccable style...Ian taught, Ian teaches, Ian will teach...

  • one-way true believers ( always blind when the cheating side is the australian one ) aussie guys on here.

    No wonder, we know so well how big liars and shameless hypocrites they can be , they're like the kids : they could do everything to win and they're the worst sore loosers on the earth .

    Try to grow up , ridiculous & pathetic little brains ......

    Post more

  • don't worry about swimming stick to diving... it's what you italians do best. Didn't you guys win a world cup diving?

  • diving ?? Not our fault if you aussies pretend to talk of a sport not knowing the rules ( sorry for you but by the rules that penalty was a right one , just get informed and learn the game's rules )......

    but we do know so well what kind of double-faced hypocrite cheaters the australians are

    and how childish liars they are !

    So, we won't take any lesson of sportmanship and honesty by such a bunch of shameless dopped cheaters as the australians.

  • And we didn't win the World Cup by diving ( the team who dived to get a cheated penalty in semifinal and final game was France, again get informed if u don't know instead of posting so ridiculous and totally false nonsenses ) : we won the Cup as best team having the best tactic/ tech skills and being the most organized team .

    No wonder, 'cos Italy together with Brazil and Argentina is the legend of football .

    I know you're australian so you know nothing about that,

  • but just ask any brasilian and he will confirm my words and maybe you will learn a bit of the game ( maybe, even if I doubt about that ).

    Stick to your dopped australian cunts and don't blame who by true facts and not by false words play by the rules : cheating and robbing hundreds of olympic medals by your national teams doping is what you australians can do best together with crying like babies and being pathetic sore loosers .

  • thorpe was cleared u sound like nothing short of a goose. As for sportsmanship.... don't talk about sportsmanship you wouldn't know it if it came up and hit you in that oversized nose of yours.

  • Bible says the worst way to be is thinking UR OK & doing everything right.

    Mirrors can be great teachers sometimes

  • In any sport your greatest competitor is yourself.

  • Where were the American Team for the 100 Free Finals ?

    Yeah, I get it: South African cheated also...

  • Stop Michael, stop !

    Drop it, do something else !

  • Are your initials being M.P. ?

    Such a venomous comment !!!

    Was Ian cheating also when he was 10 y.o. & winning everything ?!

  • maybe your just pissed that there's no referees to pay off in a swimming race. That when it's purely a test of skill and ability that the italians regularly fail to measure up and are found left wanting. Im proud to be Australian and I'm proud to call people like Ian Thorpe Australian, u can have your world cup share it with your fans who throw flairs at goal keepers and kill rival fans during riots. Store it in a museum next to your portraits of national heroes like Benito Mussolini.

  • Very well said, my Friend :-)

    Ian chose this song very well, because while some take action, others only search 4 ways 2 blame everybody & everything around them 4 their loss... except themselves, of course !

  • Ian the best!!!

  • I am much more truly loyale to casinos than to my friends. So I cannot judge.

  • Some pathetic one-way aussie & redneck "sportmen" , who ridiculously talk of bs as " fearness" or "honesty" only when they loose but never when they rob their cheated medals & victories , hurted by the truth when it comes to doping & cheating in sports ......XDDD

    Typical double-faced anglosaxon attitude

    YOU are so pathetic & ridiculous and just put all the robbed medals in your cheating

    pricks' dumb asses !!

  • I bet he also cheated for his feet size.

    It is a tricked "17" !!!

    LOL !!!

  • you've got it man , he was caught positive before Melbourne 2007 and that was due to his feet size ....XDDD !

  • Is it like the Huge scoop : "Ray Charles is.. Blind"?

  • Ray Charles is blind; but it is a Fake & tricked blindness. In fact... he sees....

  • Ok stupid comment.

    Here is an intelligent one, and a FACT : he swims the 100m free, ONLY with his legs, in 55 seconds... With his tricked "17" size feet, that is :-)

  • Trulyloyale you are very similar to Ian Thorpe..... you are both the best in what you do: Ian best swimmer ever by far!

    You best stupid asshole ever in the history of youtube!

    YOU ARE BOTH CHAMPIONS!!! You must be proud of yourself!!!

  • Man! This is funny!:)

  • not the video, a joke someone made.

  • IAN FTW

  • ian was great! but, just in free...

    phelps got a good free, a good back and a fantastic fly...

    now bernard is the new record holder in 100free

    but thorpe had the best technic

  • Still has comeon look at his arms and legs, just perfect!

  • This song is called "Pushing me away" by Linkin Park

  • ian ur a legend and always will be!!!

  • I miss you Ian! u'll be always the best!

  • Who can tell me the name on of the song ?!

    ANSWER PLIS!

  • Oh, knock it off Trulyloyale, you're getting boring.

  • wt's THAT supposed to mean?

  • Hahaha you poor brain dead ... you should go get your mum out from prostitution in stead of posting your dumb ass stupid lines.... you are soo pathetic.

  • This is fantastic what a swimmer indeed and such a nice person with it

  • IAN THORPE<-:D

    Felipe

  • This man is my idol. I am spanish, I will be the Thorpedo of Spain in the future. Three or four years.

  • I was so sad when he anounced that he was giving up his professional swimming career.

    Every time is saw him swim my hart jumped.

    I would love to see him in the water again.
