Today, a new session started for my swimming squad. I walked down to the pool, tripped over a stray equipment bag, and belly-flopped into the pool in front of everyone, fully clothed. I'm the coach. FML

Casually get up and say "and that, my friends, is a perfect example of what not to do"

Should've pulled a Willy Wonks and pretended it was on purpose

Hope you didn't have your phone in your pocket!! Yikes!

Use that as an opportunity to teach them that it is important to exercise caution when walking around a pool on wet surfaces!

'And that is something you shouldn't talk about behind my back.'

As someone who does an indoor sport that accompanies enormous awkwardly-shaped equipment bags, I feel your pain, and understand how easy it is to trip over them. But at least you fell into the water and didn't break your face or wrist against the cement!

"But atleast you didn't fall into the water and break your face or wrists The but's are a horrifying scenario to picture in my head.

Well if your the coach it must have looked graceful.

Well you can now show some examples to the newbies and a refreshing dip isn't too bad

I hope you still felt tall when you landed in the pool. Remembering that from the shed, you are their tool. You could have went down just like a brick, When the choice came to sink or kick, I hope you swam.
