Who Is This Mystery Man?

Who do you call when an athlete loses their swim cap at the bottom of the pool in the Olympic prelims? “Bob the Cap Catcher” of course!

In the moment of need, the anonymous lifeguard casually stripped down to his flowery Speedo and dove into the pool to retrieve the cap, dad bod on full display for the world to see.

He declined to provide his name – saying he wants the focus to remain on the athletes and events – so the media nicknamed him. Whatever his real name is, he sure showed the rest of us how to be confidently and authentically yourself, without concern for what others think. Go Bob!
