It's funny but it must have hurt: Watch two Filipino divers get zero for embarrassing attempts

Before you embark on watching the video below, we would like to tell you that yes, while it’s funny — you should spare a thought for these two Filipino divers’ backs. They must still be hurting, three days after their embarrassing attempt at the Southeast Asian Games in Singapore. 21-year-old John Elmerson Fabriga and 17-year-old John David Pahoyo are now holders of the dubious record of getting a zero for their dives during the games.

Pahoyo’s dive must have hurt a wee bit less as his feet hit the pool slightly earlier than his back. Fabriga though — must still be wincing at the impact his back had with the water — that clap sound in the video is enough to tell you that. To his credit though, he posted later on his Facebook: “I even laughed at myself after I did this dive.”
