Michael Phelps and his Touch of Gold

These are 3 video frame grab photos of Michael Phelps reaching out to touch the wall first at the men's 100m Butterfly finals. Phelps is wearing a low cut Speedo LZR swim suit. Phelps touched the wall 0.01 second ahead of Serbian Milorad Cavic. It's the smallest margin of victory in swimming!







This is an underwater camera view of Phelps touching the wall. Phelps is seen below with the low cut Speedo LZR.
