Suspension Over, Phelps Ready to Race

[IcyScythe]

funny. if there was a picture of him getting wasted in a bar there would be no reaction.

Our society is completely backwards.

[knotbfc1]

keep it smoking brow

[EspoTheAppleFanboy]

@knotbfc1 FUCK YOU

[knotbfc1]

@EspoTheAppleFanboy lol why u made ? lool

[addalilirishtourgame]

to say every1 or almost every smokes weed is a stupid statement, its ur crowd your speaking for not my crowd so speak for urself not on others behalf.

[SimplePlanlovr]

i like his swimming shorts in the beginning :) he's still my idol, for sure! :D

[jonnym331]

you can tell hes self-conscience about his teeth, especially when he laughs

[QuidditchMaster86]

@jonnym331 He's got shark teeth- I rather like them

[EliManningFan896]

Who cares if he smoked, everyone (well almost everyone) does it and everyone makes mistakes as well. Big deal!.... But he was willing to obey to the consequinces(i always have trouble with this word i swear to god) and that shows he's ok with taking the necessary steps to what he has done.

[tylercrossley123]

MISTER IRONLUNGS YEEE!!

[jsiszero]

I dont think smoking once or twice would have a major impact on his long term performance... get over it people. If he smokes every weekend or everyday then that's worth a discussion.

[littleroc01]

Hello swim world !!! did you guys know that the is a song named "Do That Michael Phelps" by Adam-Bomb from Montgomery County Maryland ? pretty inspiring for the youth I love it !just thought you guys might wanna check it out show some support for music thats actually possitive =) check out his video on youtube!

[redevilknight]

It's just marijuana for gawd's sake! Legalize a J and no one would be complaining. Or perhaps Phelps should immigrate to Holland lol.

[miloslazic]

@redevilknight lol hoogenband would've gotten away with it haha

[luanswan2002]

0:15 nice shoes.

[jceowoodard]

Wow o wow I love Michael Phelps, gold USA!

[Gabiix08]

mmmmmmmmmm...!!!!



[nasercea]

this guy was diagnosed when he was young of ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) dont you think a weed helps him to calm him down in this disorder... I think so!

[DianaRawt]

love his voice

[maxwolf13]

They act weed is a performance enhancing drug when we all know weed slows you down. That's why he's great.

[kellyloveswes09]

if the presedent can smoke weed so cant michael phelps

[jumar1281]

america seriously needs to "grow up" about marijuana. it is a harmless drug, if you want to demonize something, demonize alcohol. smoking a little weed here and there never destroyed anybodys life

[IAmTheCthulhu]

he SMOKES WEED



[BreadStoneburn]

I get high everyday, and I'm good.

[percdann]

What a loada crap, he's a brilliant role model athlete and all round guy. That amount of joy and positivity he brings and yet he gets punished for doing something the majority of people do!? I dont drink or do drugs and still think its no big deal

[backstrokeswimgirl]

you know what people make mistakes

what if it wasnt really him you never know ok so stop hateing on him .and if it really was him then he made a mistae every one does it really is not a big deal gees

[LordJasonGarfield]

I forgive him!

[thebeatlesquetevalga]

phelps poor is a swimmer who is

[DaviesItzu]

lol, to those who says people can overdose on weed... You would have to smoke your own body weight to be able to overdose on weed. I doubt any pot heads will have that kind of money to spend on over 120lbs of weed..

[blackiechand]

@DaviesItzu - no sir, you will die of carbon monoxide poison before over dosing on weed, its pretty much impossible to OD on marijuana

[mdrums821]

leave da kid alone so what he made a mistake yeah well heres news WE ALL DO so wanna critisize him look atcha own god damn mistakes!

[jeremyleung]

what the hell was that first stroke? lol

[jgeor315]

there is nothing wrong with smokein some bud it relaxes him after a long day in the pool.... at the level he is in he should be allowed to do what he wants it not a stariod..

[Deadlycolli]

Bet ya he's gonna become a fucking brilliant 100 freestyler and break the world record.

[caligrl82091]

he looks good here

[fwoqma]

I feel so bad for Micheal. Once that picture surfaced, his endorsements went down the fucking drain. Now, one of the best swimmers in the world, is being bashed because of one little picture. I would hate to be in his situation.

[agathayy]

@fwoqma and also i think that its just a small matter. its not worth. But now hes on track and successful:)

[Meghanistic]

What? People really need to google or wikipedia search marijuana. It could only kill you if someone shot you while you were high. Oh, and I'm not a "druggie" I'm not defending it. I just think fucktards should shut up for once.

[01stGeneral]

haha its funny how all the drugies are defending this crackhead

[CanadaRocker11]

i's funny how you call him a crack head when all he did was take a bong hit.

[amayagab]

Phelps marinated in Chlorine and man sweat water for 8 years and the only chemicals they care about is THC and canabinoids? Do you have any idea how lethal a chemical chlorine is? I know what you are going to say, it's not in a substantial amount to be dangerous. well stretch that every day for over 8 years.

[naraku127]

just proves weed its not that bad for you

the greatest Olympian of all time uses it, and if hes hitting a bong, he smokes regularly.

[jr602az]

Death by drugs, but not by marijuana...

Annual American deaths from:

Tobacco-400,000

Alcohol-100,000

All Legal Drugs-20,000

All Illegal Drugs-15,000

Caffeine-2,000

Aspirin-500

Marijuana-0

pass it on!!!

[Telfair332]

wow you are retarded people die from marijuana all the time you just made up those numbers

[naraku127]

no u fucking moron marijuana cannot kill you

google it you fuck

maybe if a fucking retard decides to get really high and drive then shit can happen

[Telfair332]

what the fuck are you talking about people im my school have died from the fucking drug you god damn asshole its called a fucking overdose maybe a selfish fucking asshole like you doesn't know big words like that but its true many people overdose and die you dipshit. so go suck a fucking cock

[naraku127]

you are one stupid mother fucker

you cant overdose on weed

go suck a dick and die

google it if you dont believe me you ignorant mother fucker

[hobokiller2000]

HahaHAHa are you saying people overdosed on weed at ur school? Is your school on mars or in fairytale land? Smoking cigerets are much worse for you and they can kill you....but Weed....No, one has ever died on it and no one ever will fool

[metropolitangym]

@Telfair332 you are so dumb, you can't overdose on marijuana. i repeat, you cannot overdose on weed.

[polo4ever1]

@metropolitangym

hahahha technically you can, the lethal dose is 40,000 joints in one sitting hahahaha which just proves the point further that you can't overdose...we couldnt if we tried :)

[metropolitangym]

@polo4ever1 well it is humanly impossible to. that is what i meant to say. although you would be dying from lack of oxygen to the brain.. haha

[swimmerforever2008]

There are new studies now about Marijuana. people think its not as bad as smoking. Make that the other way around ..

[amayagab]

So apparently you CAN smoke pot and be at the top of your game. Kinda makes that whole category 1 drug seem inane does it? When is someone who gets "caught" smoking up going to say "you know what? I'm not sorry, it's just pot, I won 16 Olympic medals and broke more world records in two weeks than anyone else on the planet, give me a freaking break."

[nelllia]

but how many times did he actually smoked it? once, twice, maybe more but he's not an adict. So weed didn't have time to harm his body enough to stop him from winning!!!

[amayagab]

I don't believe that but even if it is true that he only smoked it once or twice, what about Ricky Williams, potential football hall of famer, he was in top physical condition and he smoked pot and when he was "caught" they told him to either make a public apology or quit and instead of pleasing other people who would turn on him if he blew out a knee and go against his principles he decided to quit. That is an inspiration to children, Never compromise what you believe in for anything.

[liveonthebackbeat]

I know that Michael's actions were disappointing to many fans, but give him a break! Yeah, he screwed up. We all do sometimes. But seriously, it doesn't make him any less of a person. It also doesn't erase the fact that he is the greatest swimmer in history. Stop saying he's high during this interview. Leave Michael alone and let him swim. That's what he's meant to do.

[ampedee]

I nominate phelps as the spokesman for marijuana. keep hitten that "marijuana pipe" dude

haha he's such a stoner u can tell

[Skydivingkittens]

Its called a bong

[ampedee]

no it's not, who the hell calls a marijuana pipe a bong. It's a god damn marijuana pipe for christ sakes.

[nuocmat]

wy was he suspended?

[martythamoose]

the new freestyle stroke is called the "bongstyle"

[teneg]

Ok George Bush, Obama, Michael Waltz, The Inventor of Apple smoked pot.

Does that make them looser? HELL NO

wtf are you people talking about dum azz simple minded sheeple

[25Obama]

I love his speedo!

[KrayzieBoneThug4Lyfe]

It's a BONG, smartass.

[mikerocks2012]

please for the love of god tell me you did not say bing. for the love of god its called a BONG......................DAMN­IT

[nojokenygren]

he is probly high :o

[69lildevil]

he is so cute!!!

[guitarist882299]

haha he hit the lane line

[thecashcrater]

haha at 0.26 the commentator says winningest

[PASTREEE878]

cool

[free4david]

i think his new stroke is the straight arm recovery for free

[JUSTTTTTMEEEEE]

I am sure you did not mean that like it sounded. I am sure you care about your friends and your fans. And I hope that you would care about the rest of the people out there too. But its ok Michael I say thing that come out all wrong too.

[JUSTTTTTMEEEEE]

It feels good for the moment while a person is drunk or high. But there always seems to be some bad thing that happens as a result. I pray that he does not repeat his mistakes. For his sake and ones that are around him in life.

[candlelight96]

gee, i wonder, why won't he answer why he was using that crap?  he just ignores it. some people wanna know the truth.

[JUSTTTTTMEEEEE]

I think he is the greatest all around swimmer but greatest from years to come well only the future of swimmers yet to come will tell that.

[JUSTTTTTMEEEEE]

His teeth look great and he talks well.

[quantumbits]

If it had not been the bong it would have been something else. it is unfortunate that the media (and his friends) are looking for that flaw. That moment to relax and disconnect should have been in private and never reach public eye...Unfortunately thanks to some not so good friends it cost him millions.

[calisurf78]

Well this all happend due to his agents or whoever threw the party hoppin across the nation, frm the strippers club nd meetin miss california at vegas to u of south carolina party.

It ws said tht phelps ws invited to meet miss california nd this can be applied to bein at a strippers join too, so his agents wer responsible fr all these post beijing celebrations. So phelps ws responsible since its stupid to state tht it ws private whn cameras wer all over him,with bein bst olympian nd stuff.

[faisalfushi]

FUCK LEARN TO FUCKING SPELL

[StewartLucrative]

his teeth are fucked up and he talks really weird.

[ReddimusKing]

He's probably high in this interview.. lol

[quantumbits]

Well... you are an observant person and a lot of things annoy you...

[StewartLucrative]

Sorry, did mean to get your speedo in a bunch. Why don't you just go for a swim little buddy?

[luanswan2002]

I will go for a swim :D. Sorry for calling you that, harsh of me but I do find it annoying when people mock phelps on little things considering how hard he works (you have no idea).

[StewartLucrative]

Its all good man. I was just saying it to fuck around really. I just got sick of having michael phelps constantly shoved down my throat by the media. I realize that he has worked his ass off his whole life.

[dabom88]

Tarnished him image huh? Screw the people who think the fact that he did weeds means jack s***. So what? I can't think of one good reason that does anything to "tarnish his image".

[StewartLucrative]

I think the fact that he smoked marijuana shows that just because you party here and there doesn't mean your a complete loser.

[chico4ever0013]

he is an embarrassment to people who have accomplished huge feats...he should be ashamed...i hope he changes.

[Faustuss1]

Rofl you act like he was meth addict or something.

He's a young adult who had some weed, that's it. Alcohol is far worse than marijuana

[calisurf78]

Yeah, nice sarcasm as he also dabbled in alcohol aftr 04 olympics nd now this, so its not so bad after all.

[12GaugeLosAngeles]

A true golden champ, yup.... lungs of gold and iron! hey phelps... have you tried platinum kush? I know you like the BEST, so lets toke up at my place... say around 4:20. Bring that killer bong you showed me!
