Bl00dy hell, 10m is a long way up.

Those guys are good. Makes you question the thought of taking subjective sports out of the games.

only on the slow-mo replay, which (as we're constantly told), the judges don't see.

Sadly, gone are the days when aged 9 you can climb the 10m board at the local baths, look down and think better of it, go back to the slippery wet steps and think better of them too, then take a deep breath, shout "Geromino!", run to the edge and jump....splash!
Happy days...

That is one helluva brave sport. Good effort guys. Shame about dive #4. Is the target medal haul already slipping out of reach? I hope not.
