Film producer Chris Chapman trains to take on the ten metre diving board - only for things to go horribly wrong! Filmed in 2009. Produced and Directed by Chris Chapman; Camera - Simon Glass; Editor - Richard Alderson
terrible diving instructor ....this guy starts to enter the water falling backwards from the 7 meter platform...and this coach marches him up to the 10 meter platform.....
I can proudly say I've jumped off a high dive one time in my life. I went forward too much and pancaked onto my stomach and chest. It knocked all of the wind out of me, and I hurt pretty bad for a few days. I marked it off my bucket list, and I'm happy to never do it again.
crazyriders83 Yep..in my case it was 10m (around 33 feet) diving platform in a public pool. I guess if another guy didnt reacted that fast i might have drowned..couldnt breath and was disoriented...and my back..worse then the worst sunburn.
When I was about 8 years old I took a bet to jump from the 10 m tower. It looked so much higher up there from the platform, but I had to jump because people were watching. My feet hurt so bad from the impact on the water and worst of all the guy that was supposed to pay me was gone.
I did an arse flop my first year of guarding at our outdoor pool. 10m platform. Except my legs were competently straight as they hit the water. I bruised my tailbone and inner knee through but on both legs. i could barely sit for about 3 weeks.
Adding on to my last comment, when I was about 10 or 11 I jumped from three meters, I thought it would be cute to jump in a star shape, arms and legs completely spread... I think you get the point. OUCH.
If that were myself on that last dive, before I jumped I would have asked 'does the pool have that chemical in it that turns your piss purple'? I don't care about the bruises, I don't care about the pain, hell, I don't even care if I died. I just don't want the world knowing I pissed myself in the process.Big ups, dude, that took balls, I'd have been shaking like a shitting dog standing all the way up there.
Actually with every level he went up he began to bend his knees slightly landing more and more on his butt. His butt was already feeling a little pain from the jump prior. Look closely and you can see the progression. The bruises are hilarious. He has a great sense of humor to post this.
I am very sure that this video is only suggested to the "We have no clue what to suggest you anymore" category of users and I am proud to say that I am one of them.
The energy between water molecules is so strong, it was shatter all your bones if you jump from a very high distance. That's why a lot of divers that dive from really high distances often go into the water fist first, in order to not break any bone in their hands.
3:15 "that really hurt my arse" 🥉😂😂!! The sound when his arse hit the water was like a bass drum or should that be ass drum🥁! They're faces too, so funny!!
I know of one fella who did this here in Stockholm about ten years ago and his stomach burst open in the middle like a zipper. He survived but... pretty disgusting.
Fred Wells I don't know if you know this but people also *drown* in swimming pools yet they're still allowed. Like I said his belly opened like a zipper, not in violent explosion of gore and death. He was stitched up just fine!
Well done! I am sorry for the pain and bruises you suffered, yet commend you for sharing the very real effects water can have on a body from such heights. And thank you good humor without vulgarity!
Every summer we would go to the old quarries in the woods. That was over 50 feet (15 meters) pretty scary the first time, but the climb up was worse by far. My first time i ran and jumped off, my arms flailing in the air, about half way down i realized i was going way to fast and tucked my arms in. Even my little sister jumped. 10 meters is nothing.
seriously. thank you for sharing this video about diving... i took a 8 meter plunge into a cenote in mexico and highly regretted the outcome of my bum wipeout!! the trainer is right... my bum, legs and knees are killing me!! ugh!
mrcecil6003 Nah mate what Micko said is completely wrong. The forces of impact are none whatsoever when compared to the forces of your bones growing. physical training can stunt your growth, but only if you were lifting something like 1,5x your bodyweight multiple times a day. what he mixed up here is cause and effect. Good divers aren't short because of diving, rather short divers have a natural advantage, because they can rotate quicker and need less force to do the same movements, and are therefore more common in the elite class than tall divers. The same is true for gymnastics: Gymnastics doesn't make you short, being short merely gives you an advantage. Hope this makes sense.
Thanks for botching it up, I used to think doing a jack-knife or can-opener would be fun of the 10, not anymore. Thanks for getting hurt so I didn't have to
I always found it astonishing how people can't figure out how to jump off something of that height where they can keep their body upright and land on their feet. It's seriously the easiest thing in the world and people who find it complicated, overthink it, and end up like this lad.
If you knew anything about swimming, you'd know that shorts are the most un-hydrodynamic piece of swimwear. Thats why people who swim in shorts drown sometimes and people who wear a speedo rarely drown from clothing related causes.
***** And if you had any common sense you would realize how facepalm your comment was. Swimshorts - designed for being in the water! Who would've known. the genius waited until the 10m before he took them off. as if he wanted to get those nasty bruises.
No need to be insulting your fellow hillbillies. And it is not a "maybe", Google it, it is a fact, not a folklore. Of course you may have a difficult time using Google because of your reduced brain capacity due to a lack of meat.
Steve McIntosh dear hillbilly , i m a phd ..so my "meatless" brain is quite intact but ur brain must be full of cholesterol (refer dictionary) that it refuses to work..now ur meaty time is over ...keep believing in ur idiocy ...dont ever say that in public or they will laugh at ur crude meaty ass
