World record progression 4 × 100 metres freestyle relay#Mixed

{{short description|none}}

{{main article|List of world records in swimming}}

This article includes the world record progression for the 4×100 metres freestyle relay, and it shows the chronological history of world record times in that competitive swimming event. The 4×100 metres freestyle relay is a relay event in which each of four swimmers on a team swims a 100-metre freestyle leg in sequence. The world records are recognized by and maintained by FINA ({{langx|fr|Fédération Internationale de Natation}}), the international competitive swimming and aquatics federation that oversees the sport in international competition.

World records in swimming were first recognized by FINA in 1908. The long course (50-metre pool) world records are historically older than the short course (25-metre pool) records. FINA amended its regulations governing the recognition of world records in 1956; specifically, FINA mandated that only record times that were contested in 50-metre (or 55-yard) pools were eligible for recognition after that time.Craig Lord, "[http://www.swimvortex.com/a-time-of-change-for-world-records/ A Time of Change for World Records]," SwimVortex.com (28 May 2013). Retrieved 20 March 2015. The short-course world records have been separately recognized since 1991. On July 25, 2013 FINA Technical Swimming Congress voted to allow world records in the long course mixed 400 free relay and mixed 400 medley relay, as well as in six events in short course meters: the mixed 200 medley and 200 free relays, as well as the men's and women's 200 free relays and the men's and women's 200 medley relays.{{cite web|title=FINA Swimming Rules 2013 - 2017 incl.

The women's 4×100-metre event was first contested at the 1912 Summer Olympics in Stockholm, but the men's 4×100-metre event did not appear until the 1964 Summer Olympics in Tokyo. Prior to 1964, the longer 4×200-metre freestyle relay was the only men's relay event staged.

The men's 4×100-metre freestyle is often considered "swimming’s indisputably best event at the Olympics",{{cite web|last=Abrahamson|first=Alan|title=Abrahamson: Americans recaptured the magic with freestyle relay triumph|url=http://www.nbcolympics.com/news/abrahamson-americans-recaptured-magic-freestyle-relay-triumph|website=NBC Olympics|date=8 August 2016|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160809153758/http://www.nbcolympics.com/news/abrahamson-americans-recaptured-magic-freestyle-relay-triumph|archive-date=9 August 2016}} as "It is also the Alpha Dog moment in water. Our Country is faster than Your Country". Nathan Adrian was quoted as saying “Every American swimmer dreams of getting up there in the 4x100 free relay and winning a gold medal.”{{cite web|last=Layden|first=Tim|title=Reborn Michael Phelps plays pivotal role in U.S. 4x100 free relay gold|url=https://www.si.com/olympics/2016/08/08/michael-phelps-rio-us-4x100-free-relay-gold-medal|website=Sports Illustrated|date=8 August 2016}} The Australians won the event at the 2000 Summer Olympics which they hosted and celebrated by playing air guitar, while the Australian relay team was dubbed "Weapons of Mass Destruction" after winning in the 2011 World Aquatics Championships. At the 2008 Summer Olympics, {{citation needed span|date=February 2018|text=Frenchman Alain Bernard famously said he would "smash the Americans"}}; while the French team did beat the previous world record, they did it 0:00.08 after Jason Lezak had already edged out Bernard in the anchor leg, giving the Americans the gold and a new world record, which is still standing today.
