Video Interview: Daniel Dias of Brazil After Breaking WR in 50 Fly S5

Mallory Weggemann caught up with Daniel Dias after his world record-breaking 50 fly S5 at Para Pan Pacs.

After an incredibly exciting race between Daniel Dias (BRA) and Roy Perkins (USA), Dias touched out Perkins with a time of 33.98, lowering his own world record time of 34.15, while Perkins came in second with a 34.24. Dias and Perkins have a history now the past two years of trading the gold medal slot, as Dias won gold at the London 2012 Games, and Perkins won gold at World Championships last summer in Montreal.
