Divers compete to qualify for the 1956 Olympics. At the end a group preforms funny dives to entertain the audience.
May 21, 1956, crowds surround a pool in Palm Spring, CA as amateur divers qualify for the 1956 Olympics in Melbourne, Australia. That year, Pat McCormick won Gold in both the 3 meter springboard and 10 meter platform dives for the US women's team, while Bob Clotworthy brought home Gold for the men's 3 meter springboard.
In attendance are the Aquazanies, a group of performers who preform mid air acrobatics and jokes while diving into the pool. The Aquazanies traveled the US in the early 1940's after their founding in New York.
