Only problem guys is when they compete they will be in one piece cossie with those horrid nose plugs and freaky make up, not to mention the cheesy smiles.

Oh and don't forget all that long blond hair will be stuffed under a swim cap.

I think we have already just seen the best of them.

Not to bum everybody out but they are not in this Years Olympics

[szvwj]

Not in this years Olympics!? what a shame....

There's always women's beach volleyball, it's fun to watch for a number of reasons! An added bonus (for me) is that the Californian's are doing well (men and women)... so far.

It's pretty bad when you are so bored by the event that you start reading the banners.

I wonder what the Chinese authorities have to say about this?

What about Nathalie Coughlin, nice… reading

By the way the Omega mag is out run to your AD to get one… They have tons of it at the Galerie Lafayette Omega shop for people who live in Paris.

Honestly who can last 14 mins in apnea ?

I also love that watch.

Not over this side of La Manche it's not. Dammit I've spent the best part of the summer shuttling across to Paris and back, and now I'm not this is out. Any chance you could pick one up for me? I'd happily pay you 'generous' postage. Shoot me a PM if you're willing, as one doc to another

And as for apnoea for 14 mins.....

"The current record stands at eight minutes, 58 seconds, but freedivers have held their breath for up to 15 minutes by breathing in pure oxygen. That is how the BFA believes Blaine will pull off his stunt."
