Extratime is in Sydney Australia to meet a man whose nicknames are synonymous with speed. The Usain Bolt of the swimming pool or James 'the Missile' Magnussen. He's the world champion in the 100 metres freestyle who enjoyed a meteoric rise before a silver medal at the London Olympics and the overall failure of the Australian swimming team sparked a public backlash and an inquiry into what went wrong. Now he's re-established himself with world and commonwealth Games success but olympic gold and the world record have so far eluded him. He once said he wanted to be the fastest man in history so what physical and mental limits is he pushing to get there?
