Victor Johansson broke the 34-year-old record: "Finally"

The time - 3.47.90 - is the best since Anders Holmertz's championship record of 3.49.21 from 1988, a time that has stood for 34 years.

- It was time.

He has said for a long time that "now it's time for you Victor to break the record".

It's fun to do it and fun to do it in his pool, in his city, says Victor Johansson.

- It was a form message called duga, says SVT's expert Lars Frölander.

The Swedish record is 3.46.77, set by Anders Holmertz in 1992.
