Pool power

Good luck to all the Paralympians! Totally in awe of your efforts and achievements.

amazing. even blind people can swim

But the blind swimmers also have to worry about banging their head at the turn.

I bet they can all swim better than me!

What are the rules about double-jointed etc.? Double-jointed normal swimmers with ankles that can bend further than normal ankles are against the rules. Bacha specified that in an interview last month.

The swimmers are lucky that, in all this heat, their sport is in water. I envy them.

Amazing! I am thinking I would actually support the Paralympics instead of The Olympics. It certainly is more of an achievement to perform like that as a testament to physical and mental strength.
