He's a member of the Australian Men's Swimming Team competing in London right now.
Before some of the swimming finals this afternoon, I'd never heard of him.
He's as known as The Missile, Maggie and The Magnet.
Here he is with the silver meda he won in the 100 metre freestyle today. He was beat by American Nathan Adrian by 1/100th of a second. Canadian Brent Hayden is there too, he won the bronze.
And he doesn't only look good in a Speedo...
And he looks pretty darn good in a suit too...

With a smile so adorable you just want to pinch his cheeks...
And just listen to his accent!
Now I know some of you might think this post is pure objectification. For those of you who think that, please refer to this video.
I rest my case. I sincerely hope Mr. Magnussen does well in his remaining events, and at all the swimming he does over his career. As they say in Auss, good luck mate!
