Olympic Swimmer "shits herself" and gets the bronze .... True Story.



An Olympic medalist admitted on live TV that she was 'sh------ herself' while swimming her relay leg


Swimmer Sydney Pickrem won bronze for Team Canada in Sunday's 4×100 meter medley relay.



Pickrem said "I was absolutely sh— myself" during the swim en route to a spot on the podium.

The 23-year-old Canadian admitted that she was freaking out in a hilarious post-swim interview with CBC.

"I was absolutely sh— myself," Pickrem said on live television. "I'm not gonna try and sugar coat it."

... I'm thinking of her as a contestant on "I've got a secret" or "What's my Line?" or "To Tell the Truth".

And pool water is continuously pumped through filters, treated and recirculated.
Football players are big pants crappers too.

... being next to the Iowa team as they left the field @ the
end of the game and the smell of shit, piss, and b.o. was overwhelming.
