The UK Olympic swimming coaches are holding open trials to the public...

A man walks in, gets in the pool does a length, then the return length. Breaks the world record.

"that was amazing" say the coaches "you're in the team! congratulations!"

Half an hour later another man walks in. He has no arms.

"Hello" he says "I'm here for the olympic trials"

"Oh" say the coaches "well the thing is we think we have our man, and no offense, but you have no arms, maybe the Paralympics would be more suitable for you?"

"Just give us a go" says the arm-less man

the coaches agree. The arm-less man jumps in, does a length. does the return length. Breaks the previously set world record

He's recruited on the spot.

Half an hour later, a man with no arms and no legs enters.

"Hello I'm here for the swimming trials" he says enthusiastically.

Not believing the day they were having the coaches let the man have a go. He swims one lenght, then the return. Breaking the world record for the third time that day.

"You're on the team" say the coaches.

As they were about to go home a head rolls in. He rolls right up to the feet of the coaches, and says..

"Hello, I'm here for the olympic trials"

"No offense" reply the coaches "but you're just a head, and we already have enough athletes recruited today"

"Its fine" replied the head "All you have to do is pick me up and drop me at the edge of pool"

With the day the coaches had had, they decided to take a chance and picked up the head, and dropped him into the pool.

the head sank slowly to the bottom. the head just blub, blub, blubbed at the bottom of the pool, motionless, staring at the concerned coaches from the depths.

After about 30 seconds, the coaches decided enough was enough and jumped in to rescue him.

After reviving the head the coaches asked "what happened?"

To which the head replied...

"I got cramp".
