testDIVING

OVERVIEW

Diving from a 10-meter high platform, athletes perform a complicated series of spins, somersaults and rotations in a straight (extended legs) or tucked position.

HISTORY

There are records that show that Egyptians and Romans dived from cliffs back in 400 BC. However, it was in nineteenth-century Great Britain that this kind of activity became an organized sport.
