Here is a great duel between Ian Thorpe and Van den Hoogenband in the 200m freestyle in Athens 2004. Great video to see technique in detail.

  • What a great champion Thorpe was. It's such a pity that he won't be there in China this summer to defend his titles. Without question one of the greatest swimmers in history. Ian - we miss you!

  • lol that means if thorpe was still in the olympics he would kick phelps ass

  • ....and he is coming back 2012 London get ready

  • ian thorpe is by far the greatest swimmer ever,nobody can be as impressive as thorpe in water

  • @jared9691 oh yes no doubt about it

  • No, Phelps is a better overall swimmer than both of them.

  • Thorpe number one crowl all times

  • Alexander Popov in his prime + jaked suit = God. Nuff said!

  • irish commentator ftw.

  • thorpe shits on every1 else

  • this was the only race Thorpe won from Van den Hoogenband. Van den Hoogenband won 100m freestyle in 2 olympics. He's the King on the King's distance. Thorpe was never even close.
