When you are so far in last place that everyone starts clapping very slowly in unison, speeding up until you are finally finished with the race. By then the clapping sounds normal, but it's not. It's still just a sympathy clap and you have just come in last.
James was so far behind the other swimmers that both teams gave him the clap.
