When I was in the 5th grade, our class had a swimming party at some swim place and I dove from the high dive, went into the water crooked, strained my back, which knocked the wind out of me, and have had back troubles ever since.  So,

NO!!

No.  I close my eyes when I swim and don't like water up my nose. 

I think I have just realized why two years of swimming lessons is taking no hold on my son.  Some people just don't care for water.

I can dive, but have never tried the high board.  My older brother was the regional champ at age 14 for New England, back in 1969.  I swam on the team, but no diving competitively.

When I was in elem school, I tried for a long time to work up the courage to , at least , jump off the high board. (I dove off the low board )  Anyway, I finally did it---- plugged my nose and it seemed like a long way down. I hit the water hard and it was scary . Never did it again.

That watch would be the Omega Speedmaster X-33 the brand's modern evolution of the original Moonwatch. It debuted in 1998 and became standard issue for astronauts after going through a lengthy link prototyping phase. This meant link giving the watch directly to astronauts and pilots to put the watch through its paces and provide feedback on ways to improve it and link get it ready for duty one such tester was David Williams who appeared on Talking Watches with our own Cole Pennington.
