    6'4 is actually the taller range for ideal swimming height. of course not everyone is a giant like ian thorpe.

    Michael Phelps is not short! (And I am not just defending him because he is good-looking I swear. ) He's around 6'4", and that's like 195 cm. Anything taller than 6' is considered tall, not short.

    I love doing butterfly but I know I'm insanely slow at it. Free and breaststroke are my best strokes.

    it's cuz he's incredibly disproportionate...long torso short legs (which oddly advantageous for swimming)

    speaking of Michael Phelps, I longed for another clash between him and Ian Thorpe. The last one was oMG, historical ^^

    Hope Ian Thorpe is competing in 2008 Olympics..
