I recognise of course, that in the strictest sense of the word this picture isn't funny at all (11 comments...)
Redgrave catches a crab

Rather old, this one, but in 1999 the GB coxless four and the Australian coxless four rowed together in an eight for some promotional photos - after paddling around for the cameras, they decided to take the rate up - at which point: "The best Veteran-B oarsman in the world promptly caught a massive crab, and his handle knocked him back, leaving him lying flat on his back with his head in Matt Pinsent's lap!"

Head of the River Fours Video

Hopefully this link is correct (can't tell as I'm running a text-only browser until I get my new computer on Monday). Somewhere in there (I think just past the middle) is the FaT Men's IV, showing a Mr. W. A. Thorne catching in perfect time with everybody else. Ahem. There's also some good rowing. Bonus points for anybody who can make out the Leander IV+ with Pinsent and Cracknell in for more than a complete stroke from this quality piece of footage... (1 comment...)
