Russian Synchronised Swimmers Grab Gold With Geektastic Routine

Last week we reported about an Olympic gymnast whose routine was set to music from Zelda, but now the Olymics just got even geekier.

Russian synchronized swimming duo Natalia Ishchenko and Svetlana Romashina took with a routine set to music from Dario Argento’s horror flick Suspiria, music from Sleepy Hollow and music from Amelie. And to complete the mood they dressed up like freaky puppets from a Tim Burton animation.

Thank God the outcome wasn’t a nightmare…
