cliff diving
High rock jumps
Cliff diving is the sport or activity of jumping from high cliffs into water below.
Unlike platform diving, it emphasizes the height and natural setting over acrobatic technique, though divers may perform flips and twists during descent.
Professional cliff diving competitions feature jumps from heights of 20 meters or more: We watched cliff diving in Acapulco.
