Men's 400 Meter Relaytacular

I assume most of you out there have seen this, but it was just too incredible not to post. The Men's 400 Meter Freestyle Swimming Relay was on last night and it will actually give you chills. Apparently the French team had been boasting that they would crush the Americans so there was a bit of a grudge match going into this. By all accounts, the French should have crushed the American team...

You can view the race here or it should be listed in the Olympics videos below.

Yeah, I'm not generally a huge swimming fan, but the relays have always been my favorite. I still can't believe Jason Lezak. There were only about 25 meters to go and he made up a tremendous amount of ground--er, water. Awesome.

That poor French guy who was the anchor looked like he was about to cry... As did the whole team. Lesson to live by: If you go around boasting that you're going to crush someone, you'd better crush them.

Thaaaat's gotta be pretty damn embarrassing...
