  • People, he is clearly not a competitive swimmer, so who cares if you can do better? It's great that he's working out and working on his overall fitness. I'm only 16 but I still enjoy swimming non competitively. Currently trying to teach myself the flip turn, because I don't have a coach and don't want one. Leave the poor guy alone!

  • hahahhaa 46.48

  • @Sc0ttynzl Everyone isn't laughing about the flip turn... it's pretty good for a beginner but not perfect... it's how slow he is swimming.... 46 seconds to do one lap is HORRIBLE a non swimmer or  my grandma can do it faster... LOL

  • its not that bad, u are all wankers for dissing this guy

  • it clearly states how NOT to do a flipturn....

  • Give this guy a break. It is not that bad. For those who really want to learn: he made two mistakes: 1. He started the flip too late, therefore was too close to the wall and cannot push off effectively. 2. He slowed down before the turn, and therefore did not carry enough momentum to complete the turn smoothly.

  • No offense..... my 6 year old brother can swim faster than you and he's like half of your size....

  • wasn't even that bad. Seen much worse.

  • zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz­zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

  • Based on the title of the video, I was expecting this to be a really ugly video with the guy crashing headfirst into the wall or something. But really, the flip turn wasn't all that bad. He did a flip, then he pushed off the wall. That is the proper way to do a flip turn, even if it wasn't as smooth as a pro-athlete, it was still legal and overall not too shabby.

  • hahaha, not very efficient:D

  • his left foot gives of Depth Charges
