Works for me: Via SonyEricssonOpen.com: Robin Soderling, David Ferrer, Fernando Gonzalez, Thomaz Bellucci, Eduardo Schwank, Dick Norman and Marcelo Melo donned wetsuits upon arriving at the Seaquarium, and were given an educational class to learn about the 13 dolphins living in [...]

File this under “M” for Mockumentary (instead of “N” for Nipple Tassels) This is all a bit high concept for me.
