A total of 32 records were made in 100 meters freestyle swimming since Alan Ford made a world record of 55.4 seconds in 1948. His record was broken by Dick Cleveland who clocked 54.8 seconds in 1954. The current record of 46.91 seconds is held by Cesar Cielo of Brazil which he made in 2009.

There IS NOT a 25 meter freestyle world record. Although there are FINA recognised events in short course (25 meter) pools, the 25 meter sprint is not a FINA recognised event. As a result of this, there is no official record for the 25 meter freestyle event.
