Diving Smart
I was about to go to sleep so I can jog my 6 miles before my 9AM swim class. As you know, I’m just learning how to swim at my age.
A cousin of mine posted a video titled ‘Diving Accident’. It’s on a Pier, but it has a landing below. If anyone were to dive safely, they’d have to clear this 5-foot concrete landing. The first person who attempted it cleared the landing. The second person did not. I can see on the video a mushrooming of blood around the head area. Later on in the video, I can see that this guy’s face was ripped in half, but he’s still breathing. A doctor was holding his face together. It’s ripped form the nose down…so hopefully, no brain damage.
How am I supposed to sleep now with that vision on my head? It just freaked me out a little because my 6 years old was doing somersault dive on the shallow end of the pool where they took lesson.
Anyway, my cousin should have warned that the video link he has is very gory!
