Евала на смелчаците! 170 човека във водата... Не е малко! Поморие си го правят хубаво, ама
Абе, сериозно ли, 170 души са скочили във водата? Не е ло 😡
Абе, хора, успокойте се малко с възхищението, де. 170 плувци... хубаво е, разбира се, че имаме такива събития. Все пак, нека не си правим труда да се самозаблуждаваме - това не е Олимпиада и Поморие не е Монако. Но все пак, за градче с нашите възможности (и познати проблеми), е направо впечатляващо, че успяват да организират нещо подобно.
Абе хора, к'во се хванахте за тия 170 души?! Добре де, браво на организаторите, Поморие е яко, морето ни е прекрасно... ама да не си мислим, че това е световно първенство! 😂 Все едно се радваме, че сме си сменили крушката.
