Question

Who can direct me to a video of this race somewhere on the internet?

Answer 1

that was the best race i have seen.no idea where you can watch online im sure i will be on youtube or veoh soon but if you don't want to wait.you can just turn your tv to espn or you can download the video from nbc http://www.nbc.com/olympicsonthego/index...

Answer 2

Thank you to Quiche!  I looked all over for that video but your link was the one I needed!  What an awesome race!  This is what the games are all about!

Answer 3

you-tube had to pull it because of 3rd party copyright laws...meaning NBC.  I went to NBC and they have the video but you have to download something to be able to view it. I tried to twice and whether it's me or my computer, it still wouldn't work.  I'm am sure it will be one NBC tonight.

Answer 4

It was on you tube but they have all been taken off the olympics are having all video's of the games taken off the internet due to copyright infringement.

Answer 5

Check youtube in a day or two. Trash talking French got served!.

Answer 12

Idk, BUT IT WAS AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 13

try youtube

Answer 14

NBC cheezed out with not allowing these videos to be shown! You can see it on the NBC site if you have an intel processor only. (Seriously if you're gonna monopolize an Olympics, put it on a video program that is more universal!) My computer plays everything but these NBC video streams!!!!

Anyway, I found a small clip of the last laps (good enough to see the glory) by googling "video of men's relay swim olympics", there are several links to try. The one I liked was a link titled:

Video: Swimming - Men's 400 M. Freestyle Relay - NBC.Olympics Which takes you to the website: www.ballhype.com/story/2008_4x100/

Which had several links to the video & the one that I preferred was listed under the links as: Badass

Answer 15

This is like something out of one of those inspirational sports movies - complete with the other team (France) talking smack... saying they will "smash" the Americans.

We'll see about that...

Too cool for school.  The video can be watched here:

Answer 16

Quiche's link is the one you want.

Once the page loads, scroll down the right column and click on the video that says "U.S. men win 4x100 free relay."  There's some stupid Target commercial first, but then you can watch the whole event just as it was broadcast last night.

Unbelievable!!  This has got to rival the 1980 US/USSR hockey game in terms of excitement (if you're an American, at least)

Answer 17

they had videos of this race on you tube, but they removed all of them for some reason.  I tried to get them on "my space", but they have all been deleted.  Don't know why.  I think it stinks.  

Answer 18

Absolutely amazing to watch live. I cannot think of anything that will be more exciting to watch. Unfortunately, NBC is putting the Kabash on any YouTube offerings.
