Michael Phelps is undoubtedly the greatest swimmer to ever live. It is hard to believe that anyone will ever come close to matching what he has accomplished, attending five Olympic Games, winning 28 Olympic medals, 23 of which were gold, the others were three silver and two bronze. Not only is he considered the greatest swimmer to ever live, but he is considered one of the greatest athletes ever, compared to Tiger Woods, LeBron James and Tom Brady.
