by BBelew57 on January 31st, 2008

Home country boy, 17-year old Ian Thorpe was the star of the 2000 Sydney Olympics.

He won three gold medals - 400m freestyle in world record time.

Anchor on the 4×100m and 4×200m.

He won a silver in the 200m freestyle.

All, in front of the home crowd in a country that watches swim events like the U.S. watches football.
