  • In 1983, without the benefit of modern equipment and with no fanfare, my cousin dived to the bottom of a 132 metres lake, 6 metres deeper than this record. We're still waiting for him to come back up.

  • I once jumped from about 15 m, and I remember having enough time to think “I’ve been falling for way too long”

  • Reminds me of when I climbed up a cliff and was about to jump off about 40 feet cliff. Just about the time I was measuring up enough courage to do it and jump feet first, this 13-year-old girl walks up turns around and does a backwards swan dive. That happened 30 years ago and I’m still trying to find my manhood.

  • I jumped out of bed this morning. Just thought I'd add my own anecdote to be part of the comments.
