Extreme High Diving Isn’t For Everyone

Dana Kunze trained for his insane 172 high dive by jumping off 80-foot tall bridges. When the cops would come to arrest him, he would hide and find another bridge to jump off. When Kunze finally attempted his dizzyingly high dive in public, the show went off without a hitch. He’s performed the dive in public seven times.
Oliver Favre thought he would up the stakes in 1985 diving from 177-feet high. He barely survived, breaking his back. High diving is extreme, and the danger Kunze repeatedly put his body through is nothing short of spectacular. Kunze never outgrew his love for diving and now runs an entertainment company that puts on dive shows for a fair price.
