Where exact are they getting their data from? An average great white will clear 40 feet per second. You're telling me Michael Phelps can swim at almost 25 miles per hour? Considering it took him 30 seconds to reach 100m. That puts him more at a light 6-7 mph range.

At the end, when the shark jumps out of the water at the end of the race, I swear I thought he had Michael Phelp's body in his mouth and they were going to end the video by just saying that the shark won and Phelps didn't complete the challenge.

ButterscotchBanana - 7 years ago

First of all, he's not "racing" the shark at the shark's maximum speed, he's racing its cruising speed. Second, if the "(sort of)" in the title somehow translated in your brain as "definitely a real shark", then you're an idiot. Third, even if they wanted to put him next to a real shark, how could they ensure that said shark would swim a straight line beside Mike the entire way? You can't train one to obey commands, and there would be nothing to stop it from nibbling on him if it got curious/annoyed.

it's not fake it's real and if you see the whole program I watch it and it was good. They were not sure if wouldn't have done it without the shark suit on Michael Phelps and he wouldn't be racing the shark in the first place and how the shark react to him swimming against without the shark suit and they will not willing to do it. They had to made the suit of the color of the shark to match the suit look like the shark. I come to the defense of Michael Phelps and so haters gonna hate and if you were in his position you gonna do it.

Here's a shock that you guys may not have known. He couldn't of raced a real shark, they can't understand rules like go straight or don't eat Phelps. So, they just simulated the speed and changed the direction of where the shark is supposed to go. In other words: IT'S A SIMULATION

This is an OUTRAGE!!!! This is the most blatant display of WHITE MALE HETEROSEXUAL privilege I have EVER had the displeasure of experiencing!! It is an absolute crime, that the greatest swimmer of all time "who just happens to be a white straight male" is racing the apex predator of the ocean "who happens to be called the great white shark" without ANY representation of the LGBQT shark community!!!!! After this aired it was reported in the San Francisco edition of the Onion that the San Francisco Bay gay/transgendered/lesbian/cross dressing shark population went on full hunger strike!!! They will refuse to eat their tofu, no soy, no meat, vegan friendly fish until they have justice!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Michael Phelps and EVERY great white shark in the world should apologize on Twitter, Facebook, Reddit, Myspace, Snapchat, Instagram, Tumblr, Pinterest, Meetup, Linkdin, Wechat, Miimoto, Whatsapp, IMVU, Whisper, Kik Messanger, Groupme, Fire Chat and Google hangouts JUST to name a few.

Next challenge Phelps vs Salt water croc.....

Andrew Park - 7 years ago

IMO, they should've handled it differently. It is dangerous to use a great white shark in a race with Michael Phelps. What they should've done is start out with smaller sharks with similar or faster speeds. For instance, a leopard sharks top speed is around 8mph at its peak. It's also a rather passive shark, so racing it would've been rather safe. Using different sharks would've made (in my opinion) the special a bit more entertaining than it was.

Corrupt Curly - 7 years ago

I'm pretty sure they based the sharks speed on it's idle speed (the speed it goes when it's just doing its thing). There's no way Michael Phelps can even come close to the speed of a great white shark at top speeds of about 25mph. That's 20mph faster than the world record for fastest swimming human. It's just not possible.

Антониус Казаков - 7 years ago

2 second difference in 100m means he could probably beat the shark in a 25m or maybe even 50m. Sharks accelerate slowly due to their mass × tail width, but are much stronger creatures. Sharks are also designed with endurance in mind, chasing prey for miles on end.
