Are you keeping up with the Summer 2016 Olympics? Well don’t worry, we are so you don’t have to. As we’re sitting here watching the Women’s Synchronized Diving Competition, something about the scene just doesn’t look right- and no, we’re not talking about their extremely tight bathing suits.
Someone call the doctor because this once crystal blue diving pool is looking a little green.
Water Clarity is so important. Don't let your pond turn green like the pool at #Rio2016. Picture: @TomDaley1994 pic.twitter.com/Q5qK1aKLmA

One thing’s for sure, we are definitely not green with envy for any divers that have to take a dip in the Hulk’s bathtub right now. Stay safe out there, Olympians.
