This is great!

I feel for the person on the diving platform. Not for me either. I think they are designed so that once you are up, while the option to climb back down the ladder is technically possible, the associated humiliation makes it unthinkable.

Some similar experiences :

There used to be a special (indeed "Football Special") train that went from Motherwell direct to Hampden Park (or at least the nearby Mount Florida station which was technically on a different line) for Scotland Internationals. Very, very scary. People lying horizontally in the overheads racks really is a thing.

Fran and I were served all night by the same waitress (lets say Sally) in a now closed restaurant in Pennant Hills called the Black Stump. The meal finished, the bill was paid and the table was cleared. Just before we stood up to leave Sally approached. " Hi! My name is Sally and I'll be looking after you tonight. Would you like to order some drinks to start with?"
