Situation: Abhijit Roy is training for a national swimming meet. His event is 800m freestyle. In winning the last five races, his time has never exceeded 8 minutes. His practice performances, in which he studiously attempts to duplicate all actual racing conditions, have been better. He is a strong favourite among local sportswriters to win the meet, and his coach Prabhu Dayal predicts that he will win in record time. Speed Swimming Gear, in the hope of capitalising on his upcoming victory, has persuaded Roy to be photographed with their goggles, which he always wears in competition. Outcome: Roy clocks his worst time ever and finishes fourth.
