The arena announcer really just HAD to rub it in. "Zero. Zero. Zero. Zero. Zero. Zero. ZERO!"
lol
zero 9
I think she was just reading each judge's individual score
Sachin Nair thanks I need this sherlock
thanks I need this sherlock bitch
Reading that score out was about as necessary as this hitting my recommendations 7 years later.
Lmao 😂
Take my 1Kth like Modano!
pretty accurate
Excatly
Sorry for the interruption, I know this has nothing to do with the video but its for you, to whoever is reading this and its urgent.
One day millions of people will vanish, the rapture is near! Accept Jesus as Lord and Savior! And Live a Faithful Holy Life! He doesn’t want anyone to be left behind! time is short!
Call me a crazy person if you want too, but what I’m saying is the truth and you don’t know and realize, that you need Jesus! You don’t know Him, because you don’t go to Him! He is your only Hope.
Accept Jesus as Lord and Savior, that He died for you and all of our sins, acknowledge that you are a sinner and that you need Him, repent and ask forgiveness, and believe and have faith that He is real.
Now once you accept Him, you will receive the Holy Spirit, now while you are alive, read your bible, follow God, and live for Him.
Oh man. 7 years ago, recommended now. This dive is going to haunt this man forever 😅
look at his smile, it didn't even haunt him 10 seconds later lol

Everyone messes up. Even professional athletes.
@@Matthew-bu7fg everybody gangsta till they get to their coach
I dont even know how dives r scored.they all look same to but china wins at the end!
Let’s not forget that he’s still good enough to even be competing. We all make mistakes. He slipped. He kept smiling even though he knows he messed up. Seems like a nice guy
I’ve never missed a dive like that. Zero mistake. Admittedly I never dived but that’s beside the point.
And hes cute too
Seriously right? I thought the 0s were a little harsh. Im not sure i could even do one flip
@@TheAlexfooooo look at it in the judges perspective. This is a fucking professional event not some kinder garden play time thing. So of course as a judge you set your expectations high, these are the selected representatives in this sport and because of that it means out of everyone else in their country they were chosen.... the. you see something like that like dude, 0pts
@@TheRadFactor I'm scared of diving. I just jump straight down😅
Announcer: "zero, zero, zero, zero, zero, zero, zero!"
Grant: "that was great!" Lol
The actual announcement was "hero, hero, hero, hero, hero, hero, hero, hero hero"
He said "brutal"
It’s so my life
I like how he's like... woohoo, smashed that water!
Lmao everybody gangsta till they get to their coach
@@magicalplace3788 lol
Nailed it!
We all rate the vertical landing as the highest. However it is actually the perfect horizontal landing which is more difficult, especially after practicing it a few times.
It's dangerous to enter like that.
@servant_of_god
From that height spinning like that, not entering straight in is dangerous
@@ContexTube they can get seriously hurt at 10m
@@ContexTube look at Tom daley's UA-cam channel where he forces his husband to dive from various heights. It really hurts when you don't land vertically
@servant_of_god doing god's work I see god bless you
Grant eventually ended up with a silver for synchronized 3m Springboard as well as a bronze for 1m Springboard at these Games
at least he can say he didn't come home empty handed. And remember, making mistakes is part of what makes us humans. NONE of us are perfect
You are everywhere
And the announcer got "zero" medals!
i feel like slapping the water full-body like that has gotta hurt a lot tho
Thank you, I did not know the outcome.
How do you know all this, Avery??? Lol
Every time the announcer said "zero" must've felt like a stab in the diver's chest lol.
I stayed underwater once to avoid hearing the scores - underwater sound system lets you hear the scores loud and clear.
@@markjeanmccord that sounds like a nightmare omg
@@ImmortalHDizzle yes, an electronic metalic voice underwater.
@@markjeanmccord wow I didn't know that
I bet the announcer had fun saying that. How often can you say that lol
I love how he's not even upset. He's just like "that went well LOL"
Aussie upbeat attitude
Literally, I strive to be like this man
By far, the funniest laugh out loud (and most surprising) part of the video is the announcer rubbing it in at the end. LOVE it.
brian kristofic That's exactly what i was thinking! X)
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hundert percent hahaha
would have been worse had she gotten too technical: "zero point zero, zero point zero, zero point zero..."
youre discusting
Even though the water entry is considered to be the most important part of a dive, I still think he deserves some points, and he also deserves the highest points due to his reaction to the diving fail: cheerful, amiable and with his smile on face. Just made my day today :)
I think this rule is maybe meant to protect the divers from doing dives (maybe pushed by their trainers) that are too risky for them. because they rather do a dive that they are very secure with than getting zero points
he messed up everything about that dive
Sportsmanship is not part of the score but I agree he should get like 1-3 points for making an effort
@@lepetitchat123 judges look at 3 things while judging a dive, the takeoff, the flight in the air, and the entry, if u look closely u could see that he missed all 3 of them, so him getting 0 makes sense
Yeah, if that’s a zero, my best would be a minus quadrillion
Guy: that’s embarrassing. Oh well. Let’s do another dive and no one will remember.
UA-cam algorithm 7 years later: HELLO THERE
"Zero, Zero!"
dead joke
I actually liked that style of landing, very rare and unique
@Crow i think he could make one point if he said he was going to do it
I'm sure it hurt 😂
The landing wasn't what got him zeros, though. The dive he was to perform was 4.5 rotation. He did 3.5, so didn't perform the dive. By the rules he must be scored 0. Had he done 4.5 rotations and landed on his belly, he still would have gotten some points.
If he would have scheduled a single rotation dive and instead done 9 twists and entered splash-less, it would have been a zero also. They can only award points if you do the dive you said you'd do.
I feel bad for him
AlexRB - ROBLOX I do too, but at least he didn't do a belly flop, now that would've hurt a *lot*
Well don't be
he still won 2 medals at the games. I'm sure he had a laugh at this too
I put the 2k th like
Ok
Finally a score I can equalise in
*He kept his head up. That’s a winner in my book.*
The great dives of this competition are forgotten in time. This one however is still trending to this day on the internet. He won. 🥇
*mission failed, we'll get em next time*
Doesn’t even make sense
@@kingkongzillabong how
@@kingkongzillabong yeah it does
zero zero zero-zero-zero-zero zero zero zero
They should’ve given him at least *one point* for that beautiful triple flip!
Why would they give him a point for a triple flip when he said he was going to do a quadruple flip?
@@ninetailedfox579121
Did he say that,or was it whoever was in charge that decided for him?
@@terminallove3531 pretty sure he chooses, but it doesn't matter either way. The dive was supposed to be 4.5 rotations, he ended up doing 3.5, which ends up as an automatic disqualification.
If you play in 0.25x speed at 0:30 you can see what went wrong. His left foot slipped and popped off the board early as he was bouncing back up
I love how his friend is at the end going "oh that was GOOD" and the announcer is just saying "zero zero zero..."
I liked that he stayed smiling. Resilience is one of the best skills
I think diving would have been the best skill in this scenario
@@jarrodhall3686 😭
Imagine practicing all your life to be able to do four somersaults in the air and then get 0 points.
Yeah, that scoring system is messed up. On top of the fact that his body was straight and just as vertical as it was horizontal entering the water. Totally bogus
@@davidalbro2009 It's called diving, not flopping.
His attitude is a perfect 10 in my book
I want to thanks this guy, because everytime i'm watching this sport on TV, i always see perfect one, or near perfect one, and that's a little boring. Sometimes, seeing something different is good. :3
7 years ago....
@@Radalkurdi_english yep 💀
I find the fails even more entertaining than the perfect ones. The perfect ones are boring
@@lepetitchat123 they should change the rules and make the sport fun again
@@lgccyy I wonder what can be done to make it interesting. It focuses too much on technical perfection and it involves human judgment. Not my kind of sport.
Completely messed up that dive and he still seems to be having a good time. Great attitude.
poor dude was probly under a lot of pressure
To me, mistakes really just show how difficult diving is. It looks so easy when done right. But really theres so much precision and strength needed to dive.
His foot slipped off the board at takeoff…. Low five at the end was a nice touch
Love how they deleted the highest and lowest score
0:09 my face before i do something funny
Afq M Yes, so he probably made it on purpose
This goes to show just how difficult a good dive is to execute.
@servant_of_god Alright so when’s your next dive then? Send me the link.
If not then shut up.
@servant_of_god comments like yours is why kids shouldn't be allowed to comment online.
@servant_of_god
Yeah he sucks
@servant_of_god when did i say anything like that lol?
@servant_of_god wft are you talking about lol? You're saying this stuff not me. Why would anyone get a medal for a score of 0? You're creating your own narrative here lol. . .
Based on the scores I thought he slipped and fell straight off the board.
I wasn’t expecting that GORGEOUS TRIPPLE FLIP 🤭 idk how dive scores work but come on! Give the guy a break 😆
You have to perform the dive you said you would to get any points. He said he'd do 4.5 rotations, but did 3.5, so no points. It'd be no points if he said he'd do 4.5 but did 10, too.
I don’t see how this deserves a zero. He still did all those made flips. Surely a zero is just straight up falling off the board?
He made a huge splash when the aim of diving is to minimize the splash made upon entering the water. He also hit the surface of the water flat on his back so I don’t think the entry can even be considered as a dive anymore than a bellyflop would. A dive is defined as "plunging headfirst into the water" which is definitely not what happened here. Lastly his difficulty was given as 4.5 rotations and he only managed 3.5 so even if he sticked the landing he would still be disqualified for that alone.
@@StrawMan1235 that makes sense, thank you!
Funny hearing a "wOO" while the announcer just keeps saying Zero on repeat LMFAO
I'm weak. This is hilarious! I can't stop watching it! 😂 😂 😂
Zero, Zero, Zero, Zero, Zero
Bug ? She is a robot
Using UA-cam 7 years ago?😧😧
@@sibasishdutta9009 UA-cam is like 20 years old 🤡
The look on his face before the dive told you he was going to fail.
U astrologer....what are u doing.... negative thinker.
No it doesn't. He always looks like that. Your ego is trying to take credit for something that wasn't there.
Thats a 10 out of 10 to me. Taking that splash like a true champ!!!!!!
I love how they still clap and cheer. Fair play to them
C’mon! Give him at least 0.1. He survived and hit the water. That’s even a 0.2!
“He survived …” 🤣😆
You can tell by the smile on his face he was gonna mess that dive up 🤣
Well the sun was in his eyes..
I think he slipped on the board before he even started the jump and was just trying to save it the whole time.
0:08, look at that smile. He actually planned it.
Why on earth would someone do that? It makes no sense. Think of all the work someone has to do to get to these competitions....
@@ASMRyouVEGANyet Wow, are you actually that oblivious or are you trolling?
I thought the same
Smart way to get immortalized
The look on his face before the dive says it all 😂😂😂
UA-cam algorithm savage af. Just in time for the summer Olympics. 😅
What a guy. I hope I can be that mentally sturdy one day
Fist bump at the end there, "Yep nailed it."
Oh come one at least one judge could give him 1 point. In the end he still dives better than 99,99% of population.
It's a false dive,according to rules he should get 0, there's no way around it, especially when you don't even execute your registered dive
The top 2 and bottom 2 scores get deleted, so even if a judge gave him a 10 he still would have gotten 0.
And yes, he does dive better than 99.99% of the population. He just so happens to be at a competition with the other 0.01%.
@@ninetailedfox579121 yes, I know that exacly, my comment was to make him appreciate for what he achieved even if he failed in this particular dive. Just a bad luck but he is still a winer for me.
@@JaneAlison008 And what exactly did he achieve? He completely failed his dive, why would he appreciate it? It isn't an achievement for him, I am sure he has practiced that dive hundreds of times. He is a professional diver, not some random dude who decided to show up to a diving competition.
@@ninetailedfox579121 his achievement was that he had qualified for that competition, that's why I said that the fact that he failed that one particular dive was just a bad luck and he's still a winner. Overcoming such a situation is much more difficult than winning a gold medal. And by your comment I assume we do not have any understanding, so let's just agree to disagree and quit this conversation. Bye.
But look at his face before the dive!!! My guy definitely intentionally up for mischief lol
This thing on my recommended once again just before the Paris 2024 going to take place lol
See y'all again before 2026 Commonwealth games!
this announcer should have been at Mike Chang's world record pull up attempt.
Pointl Ess lol
My new ring tone. Zero x7. The intonation…(chef’s kiss)
Grant: “Belly flop!?….watch this.”
🤣😂🤣😂
How the hell is that dive below the scoring baseline completely? I was expecting a cannonball with no spinning, or just flailing in the air haha
"This enraged the judges, who punished him severely."
The “zero zero zero zero zero” is punishment enough- 😭
That guy seeing this video, don't ever try to remember such things 😅
I don't like to brag but I can match his score with either a belly flop or a cannon ball.
Even the best in the world can have slips. He knew the score he was gonna receive before he received it. A class act in his taking it with stride
Did the announcer had to say with glee “Zero, zero, zero, zero, zero, zero, zero, ZEROOOO!”
That’s just cruel! 😂
0:36 pretending to be asleep when mom walks in
Can someone explain the rule that leads to being awarded zero? I'd have thought that some marks would be awarded (albeit very low) or the execution of the dive in the air. Does it automatically get zero if the entry into the water isn't hands/head first?
His dive was supposed to be 4 and 1/2 front flips. He only completed 3 and 3/4.
I see. But in other sports, such as figure skating and gymnastics, the rotations completed would still be credited, albeit at a lower start value. So if a gymnast performs a double twist instead of a triple, they get credited for the double. Similarly, if an figure skater falls on a triple loop, they are credited for the rotation but not the landing. Hence a zero mark couldn't be awarded.
+fantastischfish that's interesting. I didn't know they do that in other sports. The reason it's different in diving is because you only have a certain amount of dives you can perform in a meet and you can only do that dive one time. So you must follow the dive exactly how it's supposed to be performed. Being that he was supposed to do a 4 and 1/2 and only did a 3 and 1/2 they completely failed his dive. He also could have done a 3 and 1/2 earlier on in the meet. Most likely in a pike position, but again they cannot be repeated.
Also there's water splashy
FilliMilly TBB14 thanks for your contribution
Can you imagine him having this in his recommended
If the DPRK was a part of the Commonwealth, I'd win every medal. Making dives with grace and zero mistakes. It's not like the judges would be held at gunpoint or anything...
Okay Kim enough talk let’s see you dive
@@ChristianChase7silly goose there isn't an indoor body of water that can house kim
it's 2024 Olympics season and UA-cam decided to recommend this video to me :)
Why the hell is UA-cam clowning this man by recommending this 7 years after it was posted?
I honestly respect this guy because he stayed so calm despite making a mistake on such high stakes.
Im going to start calling out my failed students' grades like the announcer lady: Zerow zerow zerow ZEROW! zerow zerow ZEROW!
That nervous look on his face at the beginning.....he already knew the outcome
Still better than the Filipines brothers i guess
Zyndix l
Zyndix you mean more zeros
"Filipines" ? ur so funny HAHAHAHA
Lmao nothing beats that 😂😂😂
Still better than your spelling.
Love the pity applause and “whooos.”
Could’ve given him a 1 at least! Those flips are still impressive 🤷♂️
Judges just hate ppl and want them to suffer :)
Have a nice day
he's just ahead of his time.
At least he's me now.
Drill sergeants when you don't do full pushups: 0:44
Finally, an Olympic score I can personally match
Same lol
That's commonwealth tho
Team mates: Don't worry. No one will remember
UA-cam : Hold my beer
That was the best thing I’ve ever seen
The handshake with the "zero zero zero" in the back 😂
Honestly, I can't do this jump. If he was at a community pool, it would have been 10s across the board!😭
Best part is how satisfied he is with himself as the announcer is rubbing it in!
Perfect 0 is just as difficult an accomplishment as a perfect 10!
Uh, no. not in diving.
skipped 5 ads for this. WORTH IT!
Well I thought it was bloody brilliant 👏
Wow. Today is August 10, 2024, and this video from July 31 2014, just over a decade ago, got recommended to me today by the algorithm hahahaha!
ehh. the filipinos at the Singapore competition was more funny to laugh at. being a Filipino just makes it better
Luis John Gemini LOL k dude. Don't even know what you;re trying to prove
you're*
hey may you elaborate on why being a Filipino would make it funnier?
Doreen Chang I think they mean that they themselves are Filipino, not that the divers being Filipino is what makes it funny
I like that he was smiling at the end. It's like, "Well, I messed that one up but I had fun!"
That dive was worth more than a zero. I know they have criteria, but the stuff before hitting the water must at least count for some points.
Somehow this makes me feel better about myself. Thank you, Grant.
7 years later and this man thought it was slowly being forgotten
just seeing the title i knew how much i am going to enjoy it
I love how the music starts to play as his body smacks the water.
Poor guy. And he smiled right before.
All zeroes was messed up. The judges cannot possibly be saying I can do as well as he did.
Imagine if this video gets recommended to Grant 💀
Nice back splash
Why is this showing up 10 years later?
