Actually, Mr. Mitcham is a diver, not a swimmer. There’s a big difference.

Who’s reading the headline when there’s yet another adorable and endearing photo of Matthew on the screen?

He is sooo adorable and his personality in interviews is even better than his looks.

I would pretty much do anything just to meet him. He’s such a hero of mine and beautiful and sweet and poised… *sigh*

@Casey: Are you suggesting he doesn’t know how to swim? How else does he get out of the pool?

Surely he can swim, but he didn’t win a medal for it.

I can’t handle his awesomeness, I’d cheer him on over a diver from my country any day.
