I actually saw something like this happen to one of my teammates when I was on a diving team. She hit her mouth on the edge of the diving board. Lost a bunch of teeth. Lots of blood. She was a mess. That’s a tricky dive, and if some other asshole adjusts the springboard between your dives and you forget to check because your coach is yapping at you to hurry up, or you’re nervous about the competition, it can totally throw off your aim. Yeah, fail, but really not cool.
I did this once, only managed to come up underneath the board. got really lucky and was able to pull myself out of the pool on my own and only needed some stitches. still a fail nonetheless and it hurts like hell. i hope i never go bald so the scars stay hidden
You “fali” even more because you can’t spell a simple word said a lot here: “fail”
If you can’t spell it right, look at someone’s else’s post and spell it from there, genius.
And you fail still worse with your inability to identify an obvious typing, not spelling, mistake and feeling the need to point it out. The switching of two letters is quite a common typing error if you look as hard as you apparently do.
And anyway, this is the internet. Who gives a crap about spelling anyway?
Wow, she’s lucky that injury did not require anything beyond a few stitches. Thank goodness. It’s one thing to fail; it’s quite another to have your life put into jeopardy.
ugh this was back when the divers thought it was somehow trendy to wear suits designed for competitive swimming and drag reduction therein. Luckily they’ve since given up on that nonsense.
ouch! that’s some nose dive.
No Driver for Epic
I am personally a diver, so while that sucks and is a fail, I just can not give it a high rating.
i don’t think any jury of a diving contast could give this a high rating xD
correction: contEst
Judges take off for “oh shit” dives.
ow, poor baby!
I’ve seen people “standing” on one arm but this beats by a magnitude. It requires extremely strong neck muscles to hold this position.
ever thought maybe they were trying to dive?
O_O
HAHA!
Get back in the kitchen, woman!

I hope this person is not serious, but you never can tell with just text. Damn you, lack of vocal inflections in plain text!

Obvious troll is obvious.

I think this was at FINA Montreal. Remember seeing it on TV. All she got was a bloody nose, swam out of the water on her own too.
I remember hearing about an accident like this but not the one shawn refers to. In the one I heard the chick got messed up bad.
When I saw this I immediately thought of Greg Lougainis. Apparently it’s a thin line that separates FAIL from gold medal.
Not only did Greg Louganis do it twice, but one was on a 10m platform. Guess the only people who never FAIL are those who never risk!
Here, I found a site. It was at FINA Montreal 05

in 7 years of competitive diving, I never once forgot to adjust the board. That would be like forgetting to put your suit on.
I did that once
I meant forgot to put my diving suit on.
Just like putting a suit on is the first step in adjusting to boredom
i know many _former_ divers who are now only swimmers and/or gymnasts because of inverted dives…
