Reason #7 On Importance of Learning To Swim - Pretending To Be Olympic Divers

This is a continuing series in why everybody should learn how to swim as many activities take place around water.

One day after American diver David Boudia won the gold medal on the 10 meter platform, several swimmers from Jersey Shore, Lock Haven, and Williamsport took to Penn State to try their hand at the high dives.  Click on any of the pictures to enlarge (some neat facial expressions).

After passing the swimming test (little ones need to show they can
swim 25 yards and tread water for a few minutes), Lake jumped
into the water.

Jacob's flips don't seem as graceful as the ones on tv this past week

McCartney has a unique jumping style

Nash needed goggles to complete the dive

Alex's unique perspective on entry to the water
Lydia's flip was probably the best executed of the day
