Olympic Lifeguards Still Probably Bored Despite Green Pool Water

Earlier this week we learned that the most boring job at the Rio Olympics is lifeguard at the Olympic swimming pool. Some of the lifeguards are stationed at the aquatics centre where all the diving events take place. Should a dive go wrong, these lifeguards would be useful, but so far all that has happened is that the water turned green.

The reason? Algae. As gross as that is. It’s mostly just boring.
