RIO DE JANEIRO, Aug. 15 (UPI) -- #PhelpsFace might have been similar to something seen on Scrooge McDuck, but Michael Phelps was recently honored when SportsCenter created "PhelpsTales."

The video, released by ESPN, features the most decorated Olympian ever diving into a pile of gold medals. He then emerges from the "DuckTales" world with a neck full of Olympic medals. Phelps smiles and the video proclaims: "23 Gold Medals."
