  • D0nKeYKoNG64, on 08/26/2008, -51/+7fake, but hilarious XD
    • shutaro, on 08/26/2008, -3/+37No, dude, that was totally real!
    • synystar, on 08/27/2008, -2/+12Still...I'm confident that I'll soon overhear people talking about how big a dick Phelps is.
      • Jaime2000, on 08/27/2008, -2/+10I misread that as "I'll soon overhear people talking about how big a dick Phelps has."
      • Chonoon, on 08/27/2008, -0/+5So did I at first.
    • kailash079, on 08/27/2008, -1/+14way to ruin it for me!!
    • WhoDoneIt, on 08/27/2008, -2/+9You're one of those idiots at a kids birthday party with a magician who has to spoil everything for everyone.
    • D0nKeYKoNG64, on 09/01/2008, -1/+1calm down guys,
      im sorry, :(
      i didnt realize u would care that much....
  • gilbert42989, on 08/26/2008, -15/+196that was hilarious. the splashing was the best for me.
  • KCUF, on 08/26/2008, -15/+6This is the uncensored version, before China got to it.
  • jargru, on 08/26/2008, -8/+158When you lose to Michael Phelps, apparently you transform into a fat guy.
    • shutaro, on 08/26/2008, -1/+5Phelps is powerful, indeed...
      • JonBollocks, on 08/27/2008, -10/+6This was posted on digg and http://www.michaelphelpsjokes.com days ago. Break can go fly a kite.
      • brycelb, on 08/27/2008, -2/+7All of this noise about something being posted twice or days ago is getting tired. There is an easy solution to your obvious problem, GO READ SOMETHING ELSE. I don't understand what compels someone to scour the comments and leave multiple posts complaining about it. In fact, your comment is a dupe, I just read the same thing 10 seconds ago.
    • dafragsta, on 08/27/2008, -0/+19That's Phelps' fatality. Shortly thereafter your heart explodes.
    • workingsmart, on 08/27/2008, -0/+2And your pool will have a cement border while his has a white plastic one with advertisements on it.
    • cheesypasta, on 08/27/2008, -0/+1The fat guy looked like George Costanza.
  • RaidenWoW, on 08/26/2008, -20/+562http://digg.com/olympics/An_Olympic_Moment_Michael ...

    Dear god do you people have no shame?
    ***** your reposts.
    • badwithcomputer, on 08/26/2008, -14/+120wow, a huge submission from yesterday...submitted by kevin rose no less. i think i actually did see that in dupe check but didn't even tie the video to it based on the title. my bad. bury away.
      • wontstoptalking, on 08/27/2008, -5/+21So....you're the new MrBabyMan? Are you guys gonna fight?


        That would be so cool!
      • cawpin, on 08/27/2008, -0/+4"did see that in dupe check but didn't even tie the video to it based on the title. my bad"

        *****.
      • kingm1k3, on 08/27/2008, -1/+1That dupe check BLOWS lately imo. Last thing I submitted I thought I was all original because the dupe check came up with nothing related at all. Then I did a search from a different part of the site and it found like several pages of the exact same thing.
    • CydonianKnight7, on 08/26/2008, -3/+145To be fair even Kevin Rose re-posted it.
      • NRay7882, on 08/27/2008, -0/+3Oh, well in that case we can re-post it just one more time then, since Kevin Rose did too. . .perfect sense.
    • i11uminati, on 08/27/2008, -11/+5Please, let's all digg him down because he's stating a fact.
    • IanPR, on 08/27/2008, -9/+3And hence why we all love badwithcomputer.
    • snotrokit, on 08/27/2008, -2/+16totally original I swear.
    • huhwhathuh, on 08/27/2008, -12/+7this is why digg is so stupid... sticklers with nothing else to do but debate who submitted a story first. really! are you getting upset by this? then you are one of them!
      • brycelb, on 08/27/2008, -1/+1It's becoming down right silly!
      • yesplease151, on 08/27/2008, -1/+1I wish I could digg you twice on this one
      • skyroket, on 08/27/2008, -0/+1You wish you could digg him twice because double the people are burying him.
    • Thestormo, on 08/27/2008, -2/+13I've figured out a way to make the front page. Take a post that made the front page yesterday, submit it with a new title and it will make the front page today.

      I mean, you already know that people like it, it's a sure thing.
    • Miamisun, on 08/27/2008, -2/+14Doesnt the blame have to equally be distributed towards the 755+ people who dugg this story. Where the ***** were you all yesterday. Not visiting digg i bet. Shame on you.
    • asus2000, on 08/27/2008, -0/+3Fix Digg so that reposts truly aren't possible yet bring the original to current, and voila, problem solved!
    • iwin2000, on 08/27/2008, -4/+3EVERYONE BURY THIS
    • Acura666, on 08/27/2008, -2/+1Who cares, get a life!
    • aparatoc, on 08/27/2008, -0/+1You ever think that this sort of complaining also gets old..Maybe you check Digg way to often to notice these things.
    • kaosethema, on 08/28/2008, -0/+1buried for the post i already dugg.
  • Mikeo4723, on 08/26/2008, -19/+10Michael Phelps - a true American
  • RaidenWoW, on 08/26/2008, -11/+14It's ok. I just thought you were someone who was reposting because you wanted views or something.

    Nevermind it was an honest mistake. I'm sorry for ranting.
    • junkimages, on 08/27/2008, -4/+11Way to reply without using the reply button. Wanted more diggs?
    • LemonChicken, on 08/27/2008, -0/+8Yes, because we all know diggs are like CURRENCY in internets.
  • teriyakisause, on 08/26/2008, -2/+32I wonder how it would be to lose to Usain Bolt.
  • jcorn1, on 08/26/2008, -13/+1Funny!
  • Mahoney07, on 08/27/2008, -5/+31Added already by Kevin Rose.
    • winmywii, on 08/27/2008, -0/+3Who the ***** cares. It's funny, I am sure some people missed it. I am sure some people have no idea who Kevin is.
    • aparatoc, on 08/27/2008, -0/+1You ever think that this sort of complaining also gets old..Maybe you check Digg way to often to notice these things.
  • NathanCH, on 08/27/2008, -18/+133The olympics are over. Can we go back to not caring about swimming?
    • WhoDoneIt, on 08/27/2008, -4/+6Actually, it was a good diversion from the Dark Knight and Heath Ledger.
  • inotocracy, on 08/27/2008, -14/+1I haven't been following the olympics at all, and I saw this not to long ago but couldn't tell if it was real or not. It sure looks fake, but its hilarious.. tell me it really happened?
    • alclone, on 08/27/2008, -2/+1It is fake
    • DaHuuuuuudge, on 08/27/2008, -0/+13Yes, Michael Phelps physically assaulted his opponent in various ways all while making sure his face didn't get on camera.
  • 9bpm9, on 08/27/2008, -4/+19Kevin Rose even reposted this.

    But hey, we've had two stories about a damn 9-year old in the top 10 the past 24 hours, so why not.
    • asus2000, on 08/27/2008, -1/+2Who cares, he's a millionaire, he won already too. I feel like he's splashing me in the face every time I see his damn name posted.
  • Ascendancy5, on 08/27/2008, -14/+12Not only is there MORE Miachel Phelps on the home page, but it's a dupe

    http://digg.com/olympics/An_Olympic_Moment_Michael ...

    For shame
    • crossmr, on 08/27/2008, -7/+4so is your comment..
      don't continue the digg douchebaggery
    • hawk3210, on 08/27/2008, -1/+1Also, this is technically a repost, since someone above you nearly the exact same thing.

      For shame.

      You, the pot, are calling the kettle black, sir.
  • kailash079, on 08/27/2008, -7/+4the phelple nurple was the best!!
    • WhoDoneIt, on 08/27/2008, -0/+0I see what you tried to do there.
  • sidianmsjones, on 08/27/2008, -0/+14That was some great acting actually! I couldn't believe what I was seeing for a minute.
    • brycelb, on 08/27/2008, -0/+10I was clued in at 0:02 when the guy swimming looked like he just got done eating a box of Krispy Kreams.
  • mgill3, on 08/27/2008, -1/+10At first I actually thought it could be a real video, but then I realized that a swimmer couldn't be that chubby.
  • Gimjee, on 08/27/2008, -1/+4That wasn't what I was expecting. That was funny.
  • cl2yp71c, on 08/27/2008, -13/+3DUPLI-*****-CITE
  • bocce, on 08/27/2008, -6/+1Hahaha, that's messed up! Though I don't think that the dude even cared.
    • ajimmykid, on 08/27/2008, -1/+5uh... you realize that that video IS fake.. right?
  • FullmetalGinta, on 08/27/2008, -8/+20Buried for repost.
    http://digg.com/olympics/An_Olympic_Moment_Michael ...
  • jbess, on 08/27/2008, -5/+24Hey Digg, yesterday called, it wants its front page story back.
    • aparatoc, on 08/27/2008, -1/+1You ever think that this sort of complaining also gets old..Maybe you check Digg way to often to notice these things.
  • Twenty5, on 08/27/2008, -10/+3.... he is such a douche.
    • mhuggins, on 08/27/2008, -1/+6Sometimes I really can't believe how dumb people are.
  • xDynaBlade, on 08/27/2008, -4/+10Sweet, this hasn't been on Digg at least twice and every comedy video website on the internet for the past week.
  • VivaLaUndead, on 08/27/2008, -4/+1definitely unexpected. it was pretty funny before i realized it was fake.
  • ATLANTA287, on 08/27/2008, -6/+2I hate when people do that duplicate shyt.........cot damnit! But that vid was funny & i have to agree that splashing of the water & the F**K You HAndshake iz just hilarious
  • Wootstapler, on 08/27/2008, -5/+4Lol @ dupe. /golfclap badwithcomputer

    http://digg.com/olympics/An_Olympic_Moment_Michael ...
  • Inaktivist, on 08/27/2008, -8/+3Haha that was great! ... just as great as it was when it was on the front page a couple days ago.
  • poet, on 08/27/2008, -13/+12Buried as OLD. Get with the times badwithcomputer, you ***** suck.
    • badwithcomputer, on 08/27/2008, -0/+2dugg you up.
      • poet, on 08/27/2008, -0/+1How polite. :) Now stop submitting articles to digg, kthx?
  • Splitthebiscuit, on 08/27/2008, -5/+7yeah, this was funny when I dugg it a couple days ago...
  • Turbosc, on 08/27/2008, -4/+4Yea, I swore I saw this the other day...
  • Berkana, on 08/27/2008, -2/+2My goodness. This is supposed to be sports, not foreign policy.
  • bocce, on 08/27/2008, -5/+1I like this story:

    http://digg.com/tech_news/I_Got_99_Problems_but_a_ ...

    Anyway, I believe the dude's fine; he's been here longer and should at least earn some sort of respect from most of us. Also, if it wasn't for him, I probably wouldn't have found it--even on YouTube.

    Rock on #8--actually, it's probably more like "Get your break on, #8!"
    (HAHAHA!)
  • harmonyb, on 08/27/2008, -2/+14...ironic how many duplicate comments there are yelling about a duplicate post...
  • Krick555, on 08/27/2008, -2/+3Yep......laughed like a tard........not proud of it either, but the nipple twisters got me.....
  • harryterry, on 08/27/2008, -4/+4AHH duplicate!!!!
    I can't take it anymore!!!
  • Xunta, on 08/27/2008, -3/+3its cOLD in here
  • gearhead364, on 08/27/2008, -2/+4Do we seriously need to repost every freaken story?
  • mohsenxp, on 08/27/2008, -1/+2haha when he started choking him I cracked up laughing.
    heheh hoohoo.
  • mlvassallo, on 08/27/2008, -2/+1Ok. I laughed.
  • hojin994, on 08/27/2008, -1/+3screw you and your reposts
    doesnt digg ask you if your article has been submitted before?
    shame on you
  • Darkswarm, on 08/27/2008, -0/+2This is What It's Like to Repost a Video on Digg

    This guy is a great person but a bad Digg user.
  • acedolcholine, on 08/27/2008, -7/+3Michael Phelps is a god. He is awesome and he knows it.
  • BillyB, on 08/27/2008, -6/+1Is this real?
  • QsheiK, on 08/27/2008, -1/+1Ow my sides. ***** hilarious!
  • davideparker, on 08/27/2008, -2/+0Buried for overposting. Give it a rest, mkay? Reddit is that-a-way ------>


  • brycelb, on 08/27/2008, -4/+2I think it's time for the kiddies to find a new hobby. When 48 people feel the need to whine about how this has already been posted, we have a problem. I got the point about 3 comments in.
  • foolishwolf, on 08/27/2008, -1/+1You swim, you lose.
  • Miamisun, on 08/27/2008, -1/+2Be right back i have to re-post this now or it wont make the front page by morning.
  • PamalaLauren, on 08/27/2008, -1/+1This was on here last week seriously WTF?
