I bet you didn’t know you could do this with your kiddie pool

Darren Taylor is a cool guy. He is a former strip club DJ (my dream job) and he just set a world record for shallow diving. This guy jumped from 35 feet, 5 inches into a kiddie pool that is 12 inches deep. At least it was padded. So who was crazy enough to be the previous record holder. I'll you a clue, it was him.

  Taylor has previously set shallow-dive world records in Italy, Spain, Japan and Germany. Professor Splash said his technique is to "skip across the water" when he makes contact with it.

Taylor also added that "experience and research" is the key to success dives and that what he does is not easy. Taylor says a record-setting dive in Tokyo caused him to black out for a few seconds.

Young kids who were present had good questions for him. One boy wondered, "What happens if he doesn't land in the pool?"

They call this guy Professor Splash. Not a bad nickname but I prefer psycho. Thanks to Brooks for this one.
