10. Flavia Zoccari
Clearly something’s wrong with the way these swimsuits are made, because Flavia Zoccari is one of the many swimmers who fell victim to swimsuit malfunctions. Almost exactly like Ricky Berens’s incident, Zoccari, an Italian swimmer who competed at the 2008 Summer Olympics, was all set to jump into the pool when her suit split down the back. She tried to cover it up with her hand, but by that time she had already mooned the crowd. Unfortunately, Zoccari didn’t take it quite as well as Berens, as she broke into tears after realizing what had happened. Her swimsuit, designed by Jaked, was initially banned by the International Swimming Federation because it supposedly gave swimmers an unfair advantage. Zoccari probably wishes that the ban were never overturned.
