Like 'Eddie the Eagle', lack of training equipment and facilities for the Olympic Canoe Slalom was proving problematic and novel training techniques had to be used!**

on first look you will think this is just a 'bad photo' but...

what you dont know is, it was filmed inland on the top of a crop of rocks, about as far away from water as possible.

however, some 'muppet' was daft enough to let someone continually throw jugs full of water in her face for about 20 minutes

draw your own conclusions :') :') :')

it was actually part of a totally bonkers and fun theme involving an inflateable boat on top of Owler Tor. We gathered an audience for some of these photos who were wondering what the hell we were doing! more than one said hats off to me and I must be mad...
