samonosuke Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 (edited) I jumped off there once and landed on my belly, I still remember how much it stung, I am pretty sure that it was more than 5 metres. Â Just been reading an article that stated the diving boards were 1,3,5 metres.

simonj Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 I was gonna say it seemed a lot more than 5 the top one..  Seemed far more than 5 mtrs to me too  I spent an awful lot of time up there 'studying the drop' so I must be right in thinking it was 10 mtrs Never jumped though, just sheepishly made my way down to the next level hoping no-one noticed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lawsom34 Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 They were 1,3 and 5 metres Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazyec Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 5 metres is a definite. They would have had to build another storey on top of the building to accommodate 10 metres  Five metres is like jumping or diving from the average house rooftop, which is pretty scary.
