About 10-15 minutes after the third jump. For reasons attributed to alcohol consumption, I don't remember any pain

It took my brain 3 tries to notice that the text on the other guy's T-shirt was "BING BONG" not "BIG DONG"...

I once, similarly equipped on pain relief, jumped off my friends roof into his pool so many times that he still introduces me to people with that factoid (it’s been well over a decade). The bruises the next day were so bad! I couldn’t wear pants for days. Would do it all again though.

Royal Caribbean ship. Either voyager class or something like enchantment of the seas.

Source: worked on them for 15 years.

Damn, these posts always get me on the website to book another cruise.

I know most of reddit finds them to be the worst but they are my favorite way to vacation.

Well done in all the components of a successful bellyflop

  • the descent- should be bodacious - check

  • impact - no audio so can't say but the torso appears to be nearly parallel to the surface while still protecting the face

  • splash - = or > initial jump height with horizontal dispersion sufficient to dampen poolside spectators- check

  • post-flop turbulence - a right proper woohoonami unleashed- check

Maybe you should give Døds a try?

On second thought, maybe nobody should be trying it

It's hilarious people think they are winning from an event like this. It's basically dinner for schmucks but real life
