Tom Daley was bullied for being a diver as a child. "Speedo




Tom Daley was bullied for being a diver as a child.
"Speedo boy"
"Diver boy"
Those were some of the many names they taunted him with.
Kids have tackled him to the floor.
They threw pens & pencils at him.
Kids had to threatened to break his legs, therefore he would be unable to dive.
I wonder what those bullies think now, watching him on the Olympics.

I watched him train once , when he was 14 practicing for the 2008 olympics. At the time I thought I wish i could do that , so i started going swimming lessons and diving lessons , but never really had much time to do it so i quit after a year.And now Im his age and im thinking , what the hell am I doing with my life?Why did i stop doing what i did. Going back to Tom , the talent he has is amazing , his personality is the best you could ever get in a person and especially for a boy. And his handsome looks are just a bonus. He got all A's in his GCSE'S and carried on diving even though his farther was sadly dying of cancer. And that , my friends is what I call a fighter and one of the bravest , strongest person I know competing in the Olympics. I wish him all the luck for the individual which is coming soon. Sorry for the long rant but i just have so much respect for this guy.

They probably don't realize that he has an ARMY of girls that will do whatever for him! He is so flipping amazing that he got a medal at 14 in Beijing. Just cause he didn't get a medal in London doesn't mean he didn't get the gold in attractiveness.

Do they realize a ton of girls keep pictures of him, and find him attractive also.

Just putting it out there, but he was also in the Olympics 4 years ago so I don't think their view would change of him now. That being said, Tom Daley is literally perfect so I don't see why he'd be picked on in the first place..

I honestly feel bad for those kids. It's really tough to be blind.

I bet they're the type of people who don't even care what he has achieved!
Tom Daley is an inspiration to me for sticking to what he loves doing despite people saying shitt/y things to him!
They aren't even worth it!
WE LOVE YOU TOM! TEAM GB ALL THE WAY!:D
