  • Professional cliff divers plunge from platforms as high as nine stories tall, all while being judged for their artistry as they twist and flip at 65 miles per hour. They compete on a six-country tour as part of the Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series. Correspondent Seth Doane watches a competition in the Italian coastal town of Polignano a Mare, and speaks with athletes Molly Carlson, Aidan Heslop and Ellie Smart about what it takes to compete in this jaw-dropping sport. (Originally broadcast January 14, 2024.)

    RUclips suggested a Molly video when she was competing in Bosnia last November. I've been hooked on her channel ever since. She's such a positive person, while being so real about that anxiety, her body image, her worries. It's very refreshing to watch her videos.
    And those dives? Wow. I'm terrified of the 3 meter boards, to do 20 would never happen for me.

    I've enjoyed diving from dams, cliffs & pool boards during my teen age, not fully aware of dangers, competition rules and the science of impact.
    Diving enthusiasts and aspirants to be a high diving athlete must be healthy, trained by sports and safety professionals.

    It's ironic 2:27 how Red Bull makes name sponsoring sporting events while peddling one of the least healthy things you can put in your body.

    Why don’t the women have to jump same height as the men

    • @outlanderfrog
      @outlanderfrog 3 месяца назад

      Because of body mass and the way the impact affects the different builds.

    • @outlanderfrog

      Practice. They use trampolines, among other methods, as well as diving from lower heights to get repetitions in with less impact.

    • @philipthecow
      @philipthecow 2 месяца назад

      Probably because men take less damage with harder hits due to things such as bone density. When they hit the water it's a hard hit even when landing perfectly.
