Phelps does it

Move over Mark Spitz.

With Team USA winning the Men's 4 x 100m Medley Relay with a world record time of 3:29.34, swimmer Michael Phelps has won eight gold medals at one Olympics, eclipsing Spitz's record of seven.

Spitz won seven gold medals with all record-setting performances at the 1972 Olympics in Munich, Germany.

Phelps has now won 16 Olympic medals - 14 gold.
