Diving off a cliff into the unpredictable waters below from eight stories high requires guts and precision. But can you imagine doing this as your job?
The Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series is in its sixth year and is again touring the globe. The seven stop tour is held between May and October and visits death defying drops in the Caribbean, North America, South America, and Europe.
Currently half way through the competition, the 14 men and eight women in this year's tour just completed dives at Kragero in Norway where they plunged 88.5 feet and 65.5 feet respectively.
Due to the increasing interest of media, cliff-diving has become a popular sport. Nevertheless, it is an extreme one, performed by approximately 300 sportsmen all over the world. Vast experience in platform diving or a similar sport is a must.
