NBCIt happens, right? Maybe? In what looks like an effort to get in on the discussion about the divers at the Olympics in Rio, British newspaper The Independent accidentally tweeted some good old fashioned porn. The tweet, which was called out by another user before being deleted, read "People think these photos from Rio 2016 look like porn." Well, probably because that picture actually is. Just a thought. The photos they are most likely referring to in the caption are the snaps Twitter had taken from their TV screens while watching men's Olympic diving the other day.

In a hilarious TV faux-pas, the text bar that appears on your screen to indicate a player's name and stats happened to act as an accidental censor bar, making the Speedo-clad athletes appear naked on live TV. They're practically naked already, so this wasn't that hard to achieve. The Internet obviously had a field day with that, with many people referring to the Olympic event as "naked diving." Some of the shots, which include divers toweling off, do look like stills from a sexy Olympic porno, but who's complaining, right?
