EXPLANATION:-
Diving, sport of plunging into water, usually head foremost, performed with the addition of gymnastic and acrobaticstunts. In its more elaborate, acrobatic form, diving originated in Europe early in the 19th century as a diversion of gymnasts and as a competitive sport in the late 19th century. It became a part of the swimming program of the Olympic Games in 1904 and developed rapidly through the first half of the 20th century. Synchronized diving, a competition in which two divers simultaneously perform a dive, emerged and became part of the Olympic program in 2000.In competition, dives are performed from a firm platform 5 or 10 metres (16.4 or 32.8 feet) above the water or from an elastic springboard 1 or 3 metres high. In Olympic contests only the 10-metre platform and 3-metre springboard are used. Dives performed in competition are listed, together with a rating of their degree of difficulty of performance, in a table published by the Fédération Internationale de Natation Amateur(International Amateur Swimming Federation; founded 1908), the world governing body of amateur aquatic sports. Contestants are required to do certain of the listed dives, as well as several of their own choice. At least three but not more than 10 judges score each dive, with attention paid to takeoff, bearing of the body in the air, execution of the prescribed movements, and entry into the water. The scores for each dive are totaled and multiplied by the degree of difficulty. The diver with the highest total score for all dives at the end of the contest is the winner. In the springboard competition, men make 17 dives, women 15. Platform events require 16 dives from men and 14 from women. In synchronized competitions, participants make 10 dives and are judged on their synchronicity with each other as well as their individual execution of the dive.
