Athletes Caught In The Most Awkward Moments Of Their Careers
Synchronized Swimmers Accidentally Create the Ultimate Human-Mermaid Hybrid Mid-Performance
In this synchronized swimming event, two athletes accidentally created a masterpiece—a swimmer’s torso perfectly aligned with another’s legs, making them look like a human-mermaid hybrid. With legs pointing skyward and movements more synchronized than a boy band from the 1990s, this optical illusion had everyone doing a double take.
And while they kept their form as tight as a Beyoncé choreography, their slicked-back hair (thanks to the wonders of unflavored gelatine) and nose clips held everything together. If mermaids ever got into synchronized swimming, this would be the result—just don’t expect a chorus of “Part of Your World” anytime soon!
