Watch: Olympian couple enjoy soaking pedestrians in post-storm drive by
How much schadenfreude is too much?
For Australian Olympic diver fresh outta Rio, Grant Nel and his partner, Australian Olympic Committee blogger Amanda Main, too much is never enough when it comes to drive-by pedestrian soakings.
*evil cackle*

Severe storms hit South Australia Wednesday, took out power to the whole state and scared the crap out of everyone, including the koalas. But these two cheeky pants decided to make the best of it -- by driving past innocent residents in the pouring rain and giving them the tire-splashing of a lifetime.
Both Main and Nel posted the resulting video to their Instagram accounts, in which Nel can be heard saying "They're gonna get cooked, they're gonna cooked! Sorry!" before bursting into a delicious cackle loud enough to rival the boys in the iconic viral video where a drunk Aussie man walks through a fence.
"Well what else is there to do when the whole of South Australia has no power?" said Main in the video caption, calling her partner "a bad influence" and letting viewers know the two people on the street were "wearing gum boots and a rain jacket so hopefully not too damaged haha."
It may not be in the Olympic spirit, but it does look pretty fun.
