A couple of years ago, some friends and I decided to jump from a 40ft cliff into the lake below. We were in a boat, so one friend dove down a few times to check for rocks before we jumped. We climbed up, we took turns going & everything was going great. I jumped and it was immediate pain. The whole way home, I was trying to put on a brave face, but I really felt sore! All the guys lovingly teased me about whining for the next few days of the trip. A couple days after returning home, I texted them the x-rays of my shattered tailbone.
The point is, things can go right a million times, and you don’t always know why the next one doesn’t, which is why YOU NEED TO RESPECT THE WATER! This woman is obviously a professional, but I urge people not to try anything similar, even if you’re taking precautions.

Such grace and beauty in the way she spins while in total freefall, angling her body just enough to hit the surface at the right angle for entry . . . Amazing

Running barefoot off a giant cheese grater is what impressed me most

This is, of course, an extreme sport with a significant risk of severe injury. Do not be tempted to imitate what you see without undergoing extensive training. Behind this daring activity lie thousands of jumps from lower heights, through which they gain complete control over their bodies. Often, they have faced failures, but due to rigorous training, they've acquired escape strategies for instances when things don't go as planned – alternative ways to land when the unexpected occurs or the jump deviates from the intended path. They've learned which body parts to safeguard when rotations go awry. This is a sport in which each and every jump entails pain, and because of that, they've become acquainted with the necessary boundaries to avoid fatal consequences. These individuals are responsible and mindful. I would venture to say that Norwegians tend to prioritize safety more than most. Spectators of this sport aren't drawn in by the allure of a risky, blood-filled spectacle; quite the opposite. It's all about appreciating the elegance of the descent, that fleeting moment of time standing still as they hover, and, of course, the graceful execution of the chosen style upon landing. Asbjørg, you're an exceptional young woman. Please, don't engage in any recklessness now that I've vouched for your 'safety.' Adhere to your safety procedures unfailingly – always.

She has more guts in her little finger than I have in my entire body . I wish her health and safety.

Guys, she's a champion death diver, and she knows exactly what she's doing, so please if any of you thinking about attempt to do this, just simply don't. 😂

Don't forget people, hitting water from this high up can literally kill you. There's a reason people die after falling off high bridges, and it's not usually from drowning.

[felixramos]

She most definitely has some of that fearless warrior Viking blood in her. Unbelievably brave.

I was 14 when we went on a family holiday to Greece, there was a big rock you could climb onto, in the middle of the water, well everyone took a jump off and when it was my turn i jumped off into the beautiful calm crystal clear waters, however as I resurfaced my whole family were deadly silent and just staring at me, they then told me that unlike everyone else who actually jumped off away from the rock, that happened to have quite a large jut sticking out from it, I just 'stepped' out, with literally an inch away from hitting a scraping my spinal area! To this day it makes me shudder when I think of how different that could have turned out for me, possibly making myself a paraplegic in the process of it.

Какая жизнерадостная девушка!Молодчина, смелая

I wish i could achieve the level of relaxation she has during that dive. She is breathtaking!!

I jumped off a 3-meter springboard doing a somersault and landed on the lower part of my back. I was momentarily paralyzed in my legs, having to swim out with my arms. Pain like fire and red capillary bursting/bruising across the whole area. Don't try anything higher than 6 feet without expert guidance and training, please! Very dangerous! I also know a family who lost a bright, energetic, optimistic, loving 22-year-old son through a dive landed fatally wrong!

When I was a kid I lived near a beach with a popular tomb stoning spot (cliff diving) - most of the people who tried it had no advice, training or experience. I saw so many people literally shatter their bones on impact. It was honestly a good primer for first aid skills.

I watch this at least 20 times. This girl has no fear at all. Greetings from Sonora Mexico 👍

[Kai_soze]

Don’t try this at home folks. This woman is a badass

[daryldaryl]

She is great. Enjoys what she does and we all love her.
Keep going Miss but always be careful ok.

«Dødsing» (meaning ‘death diving’) was not initially a sport at all but rather developed as a cool and fearless fun alternative to the more rigorous rules of ordinary diving, which I practiced. I had no problem diving from the 10 m (33 ft) board with full control, but dødsing seemed too risky for me. I remember those early guys (they were only young boys/men) in the late 1970s as seemingly fearless and crazy.

[Augest-west]

She's absolutely gorgeous. Stay safe my love!
