3. Stephan Feck's Olympic Diving Fail
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_pYDg0B6_tw As fantastic as all that athletic achievement and body fetishism is at the Olympics, for me it's just as enjoyable - if not more so - to observe some of the ridiculous calamities that befall athletes at the event. Take the unfortunately-named German diver Stephan Feck, who became an unwilling Internet sensation after botching a dive and scoring an impressively terrible 0.0 across the board from the judges. Everything began fine, but soon enough, Feck lost his grip on his left leg, thus screwing up the entire dive and causing him to flop gracelessly into the water. Though he might not have become famous in the way he had hoped, he still created an immensely memorable Olympic moment, as well as one of the funniest things we saw all throughout 2012.
