This DVD has all the footage of Michael Phelps winning his eight gold medals from the '08 Beijing Olympics. And, has interviews with him, Debbie Phelps, and his trainers about reactions to his wins and discussing how he felt about the certain races and prepared for them. This DVD just gets you all pumped up again watching the footage, and it's just so cool to have all the wins of the greatest Olympian on video! I really enjoyed being pumped up for him (even though I knew the outcome) and watching all of the emotions flow once again. [:
Great DVD!
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: New
a great dvd on competition in general. Bought it for family members on swim teams. I lked the interviews with MP & Bob Costas, his coach, his mom, and Rowdy Gaines. The only other comparison would have been a dvd of Mark Spitz 7 golds at Munich 1972 not certain if one exists.
Great portrayal of what was happening with Phelps while the event was happening. Have an enormous respect for the athlete and his consistently high output of effort which most times seems to pass his unbelievable talent. Though it was done by NBC I feel as though there was a bit of a rush to get this on the shelves so a few things were missed.
Awesome DVD featuring all the details from Phelps' excellent exploits in Beijing!!! Highly reccomended to any Phan!
