Filipino divers flop into the pool butt-first, which is not what you’re supposed to do
First of all, it should be noted that these divers from the Philippines -- JD Pahoyo and John Elmerson Fabriga -- nailed some other dives in their appearance at the SEA Games in Singapore:
Yey! I'm so proud of us pakner John Fabriga, we really did our best despite of we just practiced this synchro dives for just 4 days, even though we failed to win, but atleast we did overcame what we once knew was out limit, and that makes us a champion <3 Thanks coach Brian Palattao for your endless support and immeasurable love to us from the preparation until the end of this competition, and special thanks to the people who's doing their best to make this experience possible, I owe you all of this :) #SG2015 #SEA #Games #Singapore #Diving #Pilipinas

ALL THAT SAID, this is a pretty good time:
