Initial reports following the car accident involving Olympic swimming superstar, Michael Phelps, said that he was uninjured but it’s looking as though that might have been wishful thinking.  If you’ve ever been in a car accident, you’ll know that it can take days (or months) for injuries to surface.

If the pictures are any indication, Michael Phelps, has suffered a huge shock – he lost at a major swimming event for the first time in four years and he’s not happy.  In fact, he looks downright pissed.  Phelps had to bask in all his silver medal goodness while he watched Germany’s Paul Biedermann drape himself with the lame rope and then accept the top prize.

The reports are that he walked away as soon as the top three were given their medals but had to be brought back for the pictures (see below).  He looked absolutely dejected to not be …read more
