Update: Michael Phelps & Company shattered the world-record in the 200m Relay and beat their closest opponent by five seconds. Phelps collected his fifth gold medal of the games and 11th overall, solidifying his title as greatest swimmer ev-er! Can someones please get the guy a stack of chocolate chip pancakes to celebrate?

Michael Phelps became the Olympian with the most bling in the history of the games when he won the 200m butterfly. Phelps overcame leaky goggles to win his fourth gold of the 2008 games, his 10th overall and also broke his own world-record with a time of 1:52.03. Needless to say, he’s the greatest swimmer in the history of swimming. And he eats pasta and pizza whenever he wants. Which means he’s every bit better than you and me.
