Historia
Cliff diving is probably the one of the least complicated extreme sports. There's no special equipment and no special clothing to wear, except for a wetsuit in winter and water shoes for the rocks. It's just your body, flying through the air and plunging into the water below. Think of jumping off an eight-story building. That's the height - 27 meters - from which the 2013 Cliff Diving World Championship competitors dove.
Competition cliff diving is an outgrowth of Olympic high diving. But the daredevil act dates back to 1770, when King Kahekili, the last king of Maui, leapt from Kaunolu, a 19-meter cliff and entered the water below without causing a splash. For his regular feats of flying from the cliffs, the king earned the nickname "birdman." Later, he made his warriors jump from cliffs to prove their courage and loyalty.
At the end of the 1950s, Timex spokesman John Cameron Swazye used the extreme sport to "torture test" a watch. Television commercials showed an Acapulco cliff diver leaping from 26.5 meters and crashing fist-first into the surf with a Timex watch in his hand [source: Timex]. After the television show "Wide World of Sports" featured the International Cliff Diving Championship competition in Acapulco, Mexico, in its March 9, 1968 broadcast, cliff diving surged in popularity [source: ABC Sports]. Then, in 1996, the World High Diving Federation was formed to organize competitions, work with Olympic committees and spread information about the sport.
Today, cliff divers travel the world seeking the next great thrill and the ultimate leap. The beautiful locations that host popular cliffs and international competitions range from the frigid natural pools of Switzerland to the balmy waters of Jamaica. But exotic locations are just one factor that makes cliff diving exciting -- freefalling through the air at dangerous speeds is a big part of the rush. (source howstuffworks.com)
