Beijing Olympic Games: Inside the Water Cube
2008.08.23
Ok, so, this time I'll bring and show you inside the fabulous Water Cube.
I had the chance to go inside twice: last Wednesday (10-m Diving Semi-Finals Round for Women) and last Friday (10-m Diving Elimination Round for Men)
Photo below:
Just as soon as you enter the glass doors, this is what you're gonna see and walk on by.

I tried to get the whole panorama of the swimming and diving area together but this is the best one I could get. Blame it to a cheap ticket. ;)

Facing the diving board, the bleachers on the right are the only ones occupied by spectators. The opposite side are the ones for VIPs, like team members, coaches

The cameramen. I need to picture them and post them here to honor them. Without them, you'll never see what you saw / see on TV.

Count how many photographers you can see.
I sat right in front of these photographers and cameramen. So, when the diver's execution is being replayed right after, you can actually see me. :))
Didn't ya see me?

I really wonder what's this guy (on your right) doing. He keeps on pulling that rope every now and then.

Friday.
The Divers--Men C men catergory.
The hottest are:
Matthew Mitcham
Ok, I'm a bit partial because he's gay but, search for his pictures and he's really hot. Too bad, he brought his BF with him. He placed 2nd in the Elimination round next to the Chinese Diver.
Peter Waterfield
Yes, I have fetish for shaved guy. He has the sexiest 6-pack abs.

Ryan Rexel Fabriga
Philippines
Finished 20 out of 30.
It's was a surprise for me. He finished 4th in the Qualifying Round early this year. Blame it to his injury in his belly. Some tissues were damaged and he actually wore a big bandage (like a Ban-aid but square and bigger that you can actually see on TV).
Next Olympic Ryan! :))
