Just curious, does anyone know if this is the slowest first 50 ever on a sub-50 swim?

I witnessed Cielo at UGA in 2009 swim 25/24 and still got a 49.8, granted Caeleb was faster at this meet and with only a jammer, no full body polyurethane.

Really though….Had to mute, I rather would listen to the crowd and if there isn’t any, the splashing or whatever than this music.
