splash

[Swimmboy]

OK, I admit I have watched it. I am a swimmer, not a diver. I took an 'advanced' swim class at a local college some years ago, and the instructor asked us if there was anything we'd like to try. I said I just wanted to be able to do a simple dive from the 1-meter board. She had a guy from the college diving team come to the next class, and he worked with us (only about 5 in the class) for a solid hour. For non-divers such as myself, even a simple dive was extremely difficult to learn. I don't care if the divers on "Splash" are C-list - I respect the hell out of them for trying!
