  1. He was so amazing to watch. What an athlete. Made me want to get my lazy bum off the couch and go swimming 👍

  2. I was in absolute awe watching him. Even my 7 year old was impressed! He’s an amazing athlete!

  3. God the comments on the original thread are so toxic. Basically calling him a cheater when he complies 100% with the rules of the FINA backstroke.

  4. As a former competitive swimmer, I cannot stress enough how exhausting it would be to dolphin kick that hard for 100 meters.

  5. This is what mankind would look like if we evolved to get back into the oceans.

    So in a way, Gabriel Araujo is to us what whales and dolphins are to land mammals.

    And exactly as magnificent as whales and dolphins
