My wife's cousin's husband doing a flip off the diving board. He is 50 something. Oh, and he had a few beers in him. LOL

Some moments just cry out for 10FPS... :lol:

Nice Catch in mid flight. Hope he stuck the landing.

Ummm, not quite. It sounded bad when he hit the water but he swore it didn't hurt. Remember, he had a few beers in him so it most likely didn't hurt then, but the next day I'm sure he felt it. LOL He did manage to do a complete flip earlier.

Of course it didn't hurt. There are times when the body is in so much pain, it'll go into shock and the person will feel a thing! Ouch...


I need a catchy sig? Ehhh, I've got nothing...
