14 competitors from eight countries are competing to become the top cliff diver in the world, an extreme sport where divers jump off the equivalent of an eight story building. This dive was the first event of the 2014 Cliff Diving World Series, which will end in October in Niteroi, Brazil, after passing through the United States, Ireland, Norway, Portugal and Spain.
