Who were the best Olympic swimmers?
March Spitz held the record for a very very long time from 1972 to 2008 with seven gold medals. Micheal Phelps broke that in 2008. Dawn Frazer is possibly the most successful female swimmer of all time.
It terms of medals, yes that would be what Scramble said. In terms of popularity, it would have to be Phelps and Natalie Coughlin.
Well, in terms of medals won, I think Mark Spitz and Michael Phelps pretty much top the tables.
Not all swimmers attending the Olympics have to make the qualifying times. The Olympics awards wild card entries to countries without develo…ped swimming programs. So there may be young swimmers competing who are not at the elite level.
However, here is other trivia on young swimmers at the Olympic Games: The youngest swimmer ever to win a medal (as well as youngest to ever win a gold medal) is Kyoko Iwasaki of Japan who won the 200 meter breaststroke at the 1992 Barcelona Games. When she won, she was 14 years and six days old. She broke the previous record for youngest ever medalist, which was held by Krisztina Egerszegi of Hungary, who won the silver medal in the 100 meter backstroke at the 1988 Olympics in Seoul.
The youngest male swimmer ever to win a gold medal was Kusuo Kitamura, who won the 1500 meter freestyle at the 1932 Olympics in Los Angeles at the age of 14 years and 309 days. Michael Phelps was the youngest Amercan male qualify for the U.S. Olympic team in 68 years when he went to the 2000 Games in Sydney at the age of 15.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
