I know you can't keep from laughing while watching these two struggle to get through some line.

Here is a link to the video if the video above doesn't work. This video was leaked recently of world no. 1 and 2, Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer, trying to get in some commercial shorts for an exhibition match they were to play in Switzerland. Their uncontrollable laughter and silliness kept me giggling and LOL-ing along with them. It is great to see these players, who have always been pinned as rivals since 2004, having fun together away from matches. I particularly love Federer's comment about the only place these two can be serious together is on court. Both of them have such cute personalities that make me love them both even more. Fed has such great humor about himself and even shows off his sweat streaks on his shirt. Nadal get's a stab at some English and Federer gets to speak some Spanish. Despite the different language Rafa and Fed seem to have friendly connection going on between them even if they don't understand each other.
I imagine it is hard after spending so much time with a fellow opponent not to have a friendship but very hard to balance it out by showing no mercy on court. Imagine if Roger had a flash back of this commercial mid-match point? I think it would great to ask them what they think about if it's solely technical. Maybe that's why I have never been a great tennis player- battling against ADD and flippant thoughts. By the way, it's amazing how Fed can just pick up any language- he must be a brilliant polyglot. He speaks French, German, Swiss- German, English, some Swedish, some Italian, and also apparently some Spanish. I'd love to see both Rafa and Fed pairing up to do some commercials in Japanese.
Does anybody have any great videos of these two being goofballs?
One thing I noticed is that Rafa's hands are all wrapped up. I know he wears that for matches but not around everyday especially not for commercials. What's the hand and finger wraps about? Do you think the two of them where playing tennis and came in for a quick commercial?
