At the risk of being labeled a crazy conspiracy theorist...
I can't help but wonder if the pool in the water cube is a little short. There have been, what, 12 world records so far? It seems like every time someone jumps in the water we have a new world record.
Maybe it's the new high-tech swimsuits. Or maybe the athletes are really just much better now (and Michael Phelps certainly is amazing).
Or maybe the Chinese, who seem to want to stage manage everything, right down to lip-synching in the opening extravaganza, made the pool a wee bit short to make this THE MOST EXCITING OLYMPICS EVER!
