Michael Phelps: Miracle Finish for Gold Medal #7

Live footage from inside the Water Cube as Michael Phelps roars toward the finish and claims his 7th gold medal in dramatic fashion touching off jubilant pandemonium.

Sorry for losing it there like the Nintendo Christmas kid but we all thought Phelps was going to lose for the first 80 meters and then at the very end, I thought he might have out touched the guy. When the scoreboard showed 'Phelps' with a '1' next to it, the entire place, myself included, just went nuts.

U-S-A, U-S-A!

To realize the value of one millisecond : Ask the person who has won a silver medal in the Olympics.

@musiclives1000 and he glided while phelps took another stroke giving him a last minute push to the finish. The head bring up had little to do. And being a swimmer I know that t that competitive level he wouldn't bring his head up that far so it couldn't have affected him all that much. Just sayin :-)

the guy in second lost cause he didnt keep his head down at the finish.

it was a close call and no matter who won, phelps proved he was the faster swimmer in rome. if you argue over a close call, just look at rome.

what you have to learn from this video is: to be a champ you have to try hard and.. do not cut your finger nails :)
