Anderson Cooper (In A Swimsuit) Races Michael Phelps (VIDEO)

On this Sunday's 60 Minutes, Anderson Cooper has an interview with Olympic hero Michael Phelps.

During the interview, Cooper challenged Phelps to a race, with a few conditions to try and even out the playing field.

Phelps had to swim underwater, with no breathing, and could only use his legs. Cooper also got to dive in while Phelps could only push off the wall.

Plus, Phelps has not really been training since the games and is, for him, sort of out of shape.

So who won?

AC's hair didn't even move. Michael rocks! He's such a fish.

[Mattie]

AC looked good, gay not gay, I don't care. He's cute, it's not like I'll ever meet the guy, so a woman can dream!

[situationcritical]

Well, I have. In a gay bar. And he's cute and gay.

[eden4barack08]

Dream, baby, dream! Right there witcha. ;)

AC is cute, but that's all he is, really, really cute.

I loved MP's underwater swim. That looked very cool! do it again!

[eden4barack08]

Awesome! he looked like a dolphin.

[mspink]

I do wish Andy would come out.

[biggurl]

does he need too? doesn't everyone know? he's pretty out and about the town and the hamptons

[Eric8869]

Yes because young gay people need role models. Still the highest suicide rate for teens.

[Tom95134]

It was so obvious that Andy was making an effort to only look at MP's face.

[leftbehind2000]

Is that what he calls it?

[Antonia1]

I bet Phelps was being nice to Cooper : )

[magicmary]

Does anyone else know how to do that undulating swim that Phelps does under the surface of the water? All the olympians are doing it and I gave it a shot but it's just inhuman. It's eel like. I still wish I could do it though!

[Culturemaven]

I do believe it involves pelvic thrusting of some sort.

[magicmary]

It's unnatural I tell ya!

[YellowDogInRedCounty]

That must be the part that really drives you insa-a-a-a-a-a-a-ane!

[StringOfLights]

It's just a dolphin kick. I learned it when I learned how to swim. The thing is that no one can do it like Phelps. see: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=93575235

Congratulations to CBS for finding a way to show Anderson Cooper naked.

[barrycourage]

Not naked enough!

[denver]

[keifergodot]

[kevin]

[LeftLeanWing]

LOL, oh, I could say so much!!

[keifergodot]

Oh, Adrienne, please do!!!! LOL!!!!

[AlP]

I don't think Anderson did that bad. Perhaps I didn't see clearly enough. For a novice like Cooper, he wasn't that far behind Phelps, and remember, Coop didn't wear a speedo.

[shrinqrap]

AC giving a nearly naked Michael Phelps the AC 360?

Who saw that coming? lol

[fdavidm]

Michael Phelps in a Speedo and Anderson Cooper in boxers. This clip will be on every gay blog by morning. The only regret is that Anderson didn't wear a thong to give me a slight advantage.

[Donthizz]

oh i can do that too, easy!

[gayexmormonbotanist]

Awwwe no speedo for Cooper? That must have been why he lost!
