Well, if one considered Michael Phelps’s shiny World Record in the 200m fly untouchable, then what about Cesar Cielo’s blast from Rome 2009, 46.91 in a full-body rubber suit which was a premium aide for the sprinters?

Yesterday, Phelps’ mark was gone, while today Caeleb Dressel rocketed to an amazing win in the 100m free at the FINA World Championships 2019 in Gwangju and almost chased down the WR, clocking 46.96 – just 0.05 shy of the all-time best effort.
