Photo #1 is something we Australians, who are (or used to be) good at swimming, should try. Swimming and cycling at once. It like the combination of Funeral Home and Salad Bar, something nobody needs yet we cannot do without.
Either that or its a new cyclocross manoeuvre. Need to hurdle that creek? Why not "fish" across? No pesky unclipping.
Jörg Jaksche said today "only the dumb ones get caught". I think the rider in photo 2 falls into that category.

I almost forgot. Where I come from "scabbie" is the name of the person who most consistently "throws it down the road". I haven't seen him since I returned to racing last year so I'm guessing his family has locked him in a cupboard somewhere to avoid any unfortunate linking of him to them. Especially since he's the youngest son of the Australian Cycling President, Mike Victor, and younger brother of the National Technical Director of the Australian Institute of Sport, James Victor.
"Scabby" - nice.
