The Ukrainian national team was flooded at the World Rowing Championships, but it swam underwater to the finish line, becoming the hero of the tournament. Video
The Ukrainian Dragon rowing team became the heroes of the World Championship, which was held in Thailand from August 4 to 13. Our team during the race at a distance of 2000 meters in the open class was able to get to the finish line almost under water.
For reference: the Dragon boat is a large twenty-seater canoe, decorated with a dragon's head and tail in the front and back respectively. A drummer sits on the bow and beats out the rhythm on a large drum. Another person in the stern steers the boat.

When the finish line was 200 meters away, a wave from a neighboring boat flooded the Ukrainians' "dragon" and it started to go down.
"Yellow-Blue" did not get confused and continued rowing, finishing sixth already on the flooded boat.
All spectators and opposing teams gave the Ukrainian national team a real ovation.
