Reading that score out was about as necessary as this hitting my recommendations 7 years later.

Oh man. 7 years ago, recommended now. This dive is going to haunt this man forever 😅

The arena announcer really just HAD to rub it in. "Zero. Zero. Zero. Zero. Zero. Zero. ZERO!"

[cgrogers]

Let’s not forget that he’s still good enough to even be competing. We all make mistakes. He slipped. He kept smiling even though he knows he messed up. Seems like a nice guy

[infinitebliss]

Announcer: "zero, zero, zero, zero, zero, zero, zero!"
Grant: "that was great!" Lol

[DonLee]

I like how he's like... woohoo, smashed that water!

[JoostMehrtens]

We all rate the vertical landing as the highest. However it is actually the perfect horizontal landing which is more difficult, especially after practicing it a few times.

[vgmaster]

Every time the announcer said "zero" must've felt like a stab in the diver's chest lol.

Grant eventually ended up with a silver for synchronized 3m Springboard as well as a bronze for 1m Springboard at these Games
at least he can say he didn't come home empty handed. And remember, making mistakes is part of what makes us humans. NONE of us are perfect

By far, the funniest laugh out loud (and most surprising) part of the video is the announcer rubbing it in at the end.  LOVE it.

[boltoms]

*He kept his head up. That’s a winner in my book.*

[TheKoxy]

I actually liked that style of landing, very rare and unique

[curtislarsen]

I love how he's not even upset. He's just like "that went well LOL"

The great dives of this competition are forgotten in time. This one however is still trending to this day on the internet. He won. 🥇

[katyaaralina]

Even though the water entry is considered to be the most important part of a dive, I still think he deserves some points, and he also deserves the highest points due to his reaction to the diving fail: cheerful, amiable and with his smile on face. Just made my day today :)

[JacobLE]

Guy: that’s embarrassing. Oh well. Let’s do another dive and no one will remember.
YouTube algorithm 7 years later: HELLO THERE

[fiftyminutes]

They should’ve given him at least *one point* for that beautiful triple flip!

[TheJeffDing]

If you play in 0.25x speed at 0:30 you can see what went wrong. His left foot slipped and popped off the board early as he was bouncing back up

[sammilin]

I love how his friend is at the end going "oh that was GOOD" and the announcer is just saying "zero zero zero..."

Imagine practicing all your life to be able to do four somersaults in the air and then get 0 points.
