When the starting gun went off, half of the field of triathletes were blocked from diving in the water by a TV boat which got in the way.

In the confusion of the moment support boats and jet skis flew off as some were left stranded on the pontoon, despite the false start alert horn sounding to halt the opening 1,500 metre swim leg.
