diving
Sport of plunging into water, usually headfirst and often following the performance of one or more acrobatic maneuvers (such as flexing or somersaulting). It emerged as a competitive sport in the late 19th cent. and became part of the Olympic Games in 1904. Dives are performed from a firm platform 5 or 10 m (16.4 or 32.8 ft) above the water, or from an elastic springboard 1 or 3 m (3.3 or 9.8 ft) above the water. In Olympic contests, only the 10-m platform and 3-m springboard are used. Contestants are required to do certain dives, each rated according to its degree of difficulty, as well as dives of their own choice. Judges score each dive, and the total score is multiplied by the degree of difficulty.
