Wide World of Sports covered a cliff diving event for a few years and of course Elvis made a movie. The trick in some places is that the tide and the wave has to be right. You have to dive when the wave is still out or just starting to come in.

I seemed to remember some tasty girls in that movie so I looked it up. Ursula Andress was one of the girls, the movie was Fun in Acalpuco. Elvis didn't do any of the real diving but the divers were jumping roughly 115' according to the net. These jumps don't look quite that high but nothing about cliff diving, other than the girls, appealed to me even when I was young and dumb!

That cut or whatever is very narrow which makes the water stack up nicely but there isn't much margin for error either where you try to land or timing a wave coming in.

In my late teens/early 20's I was a petroleum relocation expert. I worked at a gas station :)
One of my brother-in-laws calls himself an aggregate relocation specialist; hauls limestone and gravel.

I asked, “so what were you when it was slow and you were hauling chickenshit for that farmer, the 25 ton turdbucket?”

I always know when he doesn’t have a good comeback when I hear, “shut up stupid.”
