The funniest sailing video ever!!

I know this is a cruising site and the Olympics are all about racing, but that doesn't mean that the racers have exclusive rights to a sense of humour as well.

Do watch this piece of 2012 Olympic sailing vision with an Irish commentary. It has become the hit of the Games amongst the sailing media contingent. This is the must watch!!

The fact that this piece is still on line shows the IOC and the moving pictures rights holders has a sense of humour too. Well done guys.

One warning, watch it to the end, but do not watch this with hot liquid in hand!!
