In a nutshell, Michael Phelps is breaking all previous Olympic records for number of medals per individual, best time, etc. and has been bombarded by cameras watching his every move; every breath and apparently we even care what he eats, when he sleeps and how often he trains. Whether that is to create miniature Phelps-clones or not we won’t know for a number of years. Last night, one announcer explained how he made all the other swimmers look like boys, though they are not boys; in fact they are the best swimmers in the world, but that is they way he makes them look – like boys. So merely watching one person swim instantly removes intellegent comments from the human mind.
