what does everyone make of this guy?
personally I think hes pheonomenal. To win so many Golds, smashing so many world records in the process, all at the tender age of 23 is quite remarkable
Seems like a decent, honest, hard-working athlete whos unbelievably good at what he does

Thinks he's a fantastic athlete
Sure i read somewhere that he had ADHD and was bullied at school.....he's an inspiration and shows that you can do it if you put your mind to it
Don't reallt get excited about American sports stars....but Phelps is the exception

That was exhilirating! I can't believe Phelps won that. The mark f the best ever IMO, winning from that kind of 50m defecit. Wow. The best finish I've ever seen.

I heard yesterday that he has double jointed ankles which helps him get maximum thrust in the water, so he's really cheating!
Seriously, he is a fantastic athlete who is doing unbelievable things in Beijing and although he's not British, I genuinely hope he gets his 8 medals. His final race is tomorrow in the 4x100m medley relay.
I also heard that he eats around 12,000 calories a day, which is 6 times the amount that the average adult male is supposed to take!

Sky Sports wre at the cafe place he goes to and he has at least 3000 calories for his breakfast! It's like a big massive fry up then cookies.
Thats my kind of sportsman!
