(Photo by Matt Cardy/Getty Images)A reporter for the BBC was interviewing the English swim team that was in Australia to compete in the Commonwealth Games. The swimmers were sitting at the edge of a small pool so he slowly stepped into the water and said, "I'm going to be very careful because I've got this sound pack on."
