Following up the post about the [****Most Gold Medals in Olympics 2008**](https://jimmakos.com/2008/08/most-gold-medals-olympics-2008/), today’s article was meant to talk about the **World** **Records** in **Beijing** **Olympics**. However, what surprises me is that there is not a single one website or blog showing record standings! There is no interest either in betting exchanges of bookmakers who do not offer any betting market about **world** **records** other than how many **world** **records** Michael Phelps holds. We want to know whether USA will break the **most** **world** **records** in **Olympics** or they will be beat by some other country. Indeed, there have not been many **world** **records** that have been broken up to now, but people keep searching for new **world** **records** and I’m one of them!

The official website of the **Beijing** 2008 Olympic Games provides information regarding Olympic and **World** **records**, but it is sorted by the date broken and there are no **world** record standings for the countries, just like the Overall Medal Standings. If you happen to know of any internet resource which shows how many **world** **records** each country holds for **Olympics** 2008, you are more than welcome to leave a comment below. For the time being here is a **world** record video:

Video footage from **Beijing Olympics** 2008 is not allowed in Youtube or any other Video Hosting Site. The video above shows an older **world** record.

Michael Phelps of the United States broke his own **world** record in the final of the men’s 400-meter individual medley at the **world** championships on Sunday. Phelps, 21, won the gold in four minutes, 6.22 seconds to wipe 2.04 seconds off the previous mark of 4:08.26 which he set at the 2004 Athens **Olympics.**
