Risky New Sport:
“I have been diving since I was 7 years old, but it was getting to be too routine and boring,” said April March. “So when I heard the underground buzz out there about this new sport, I was anxious to try it.” This underground sport surfaced to the main stream only recently. Long-time practitioners were afraid of the stigma associated with water from the toilet bowl. Urban myth has it that the progenitors of the sport got the idea from Looney Tunes animated cartoons depicting characters diving into glasses of water from staggering heights. “This just goes to show that the tendency people have of imitating what they see on TV is not a new phenomenon,” said a representative from a television industry watchdog group. The popularity of doing dangerous stunts increased dramatically after the market penetration of MTV’s show Jackass, where the stars of the show engage in risky activities. “I think we opened the door for everyone on the fringe doing these risky feats,” said Johnny Knoxville of Jackass. “I am just glad that we could have a positive effect and make a difference in other peoples lives. It gives what we did meaning.”
“It is easier to learn when you are little. Since you have a smaller body there is a greater margin for error in the bowl than when you get older,” said Andrea Stethy, who has already put her 3 year-old daughter in training.

Will this fad stick around like hard water stains in the bowl, or is it just something passing through our system? I guess we’ll just have to wait and see! ![]() For rare animals from miniature rodeo bulls to coturnix quail visit www.HatchFarms.com |
