Yes, the boys were very ambitious and went for the dives, a 3.8 and 4.1 Degree of Dificulty
In plan they had the highest Degree of Dificulty of all the duos, including the chinese.
A bit messy in some entrances but just going for those insane dives and considering their age (teenagers) and knowing they were expected to win a medal, they showed control, confidence and self believe.
They will truly inspire a generation in our country, right now they are almost everywhere!

It sounds like Mexico could really challenge for gold if they mastered those "easy" first two round dives.

That was an awful thing to say. The anonymity of the Internet has made some fols feel like they can say anything they want.

That tweet was ridiculous but getting the police involved? There was no threat or name calling or anything. Unless GB has some seriously weird laws I can't possibly see what the police can do about mean tweets.

Errr, harrassment? I think there is more than enough grounds there to get the police involved as they have done.
To think that fun is simple fun, while earnest things are earnest, proves all too plain that neither one thou truthfully discernest.

Perhaps involving the authorities will make "copycats" think before they act.
