Swim pranks are an essential part of the swimming culture… Well, maybe not essential, but they’re certainly the parts you remember and laugh about well into old age.
The video below went viral and has been done again and again by swimmers crowded into a communal shower.

Speedo Party in a Hotel: The standared crowd of dudes in banana hammocks, walking around in public. Yes, this is a go-to prank for swimmers.
S&$T Swimmers Do at Hotels: More from the guys above…and very much like every swim meet where swimmers takeover hotels.
Swim Team Prank: Sorry. I had to remove this one, re: USAs code. You can’t record video in locker rooms. (Thanks to the commenter, JT, for pointing this out.)
Swimming Pool Prank: PG, but really harmless. “We don’t swim in your toliet, so don’t pee in our pool.”
Pop-Its: Olympic medalist and reality show TV star, Ed Moses, headlines this one.

Although it’s not a flattering representation of the sport, it’s an honest one.
