    It's to break the surface tension of the water. Old iron workers that built bridges were trained to throw their hammer into the water if they were falling. Doing so would often save their lives

      edit: also, gravity affects everything the same. if you hold a feather and a bowling ball in a vacuum and drop both at the same time, they fall at the same rate. mass doesn't matter when it comes to how fast something falls.

    Not only does it help with surface tension, but it can help you time your rotation. In other words, you can get a feel for hoe long youll fall to make sure youre in a safe position at the time of impact.

  • @P_L90
    @P_L90 Před rokem +12506

    For those of you who want an actual answer, there could be a couple different reasons why he does this.
    1) To agitate the water so he can see it better.
    2) To gauge the distance from the top to the water.
    3) To break the surface tension
    (Long answer: Bonds form between the water molecules called hydrogen bonds. They form because the hydrogen/oxygen atoms are slightly negative or positive. Therefore, opposites attract and you get water tension. The rock breaks the bonds in order for a smooth contact with the water for the diver.)

    The man in the videos name is Mike Hunt Hertz. After finding out his wife was cheating with a local man Mr. Hertz did some mild social media stalking and found out where his wife and the mystery man would be going to meet eachother. Once he knew the location where they'd be he devised a way to get his revenge. Mr. Hertz would simply throw a rock off the bridge and take the man out with a swift blow to the head plunging to the depths below to confirm the kill directly after impact. Once the kill was confirmed he would then T-bag (also known as Skull F***) the mans lifeless body as he rose back to the surface as if he was a call of duty god popping up out of the water infront of his stunned and horrified wife and shouting "Tah Dah!!" causing her to go into shock and faint thus drowning to death. He would then swim away down river where he had his car waiting and go home as if he was never there. The whole thing would look like an accident leaving Mr. Hertz as the unsuspecting grieving husband but in reality he would be free of his cheating wife and rich off of the life insurance money. What you see in the first clip above is Mr. Hertz doing a test run of his plan trying to make sure he has the timing and angles down just right for the plan to work properly. The second clip is Mr. Hertz attempting to execute the plan but it goes wrong. He beomes too excited and enraged. Seeing red he throws the rock with extreme force missing both the man and his wife below. Mr. Hertz then proceeds to execute stage two of the plan jumping but when he reaches the edge he realizes that he missed the man so he decides he will Execute a triple 360 inverted face f*** on the man killing them both instantly Infront of his wife. It was later revealed in the autopsy report that the man Mrs. Hertz had been having an affair with was named Buster Himen.. he was 69 years old. Poor old bastard never knew what hit him. After the Incident the wife whose name was later revealed to be Anita went back to her maiden name Dickenme then later moved to Chappaqua, New York where she found a job working for the clinton family as a secretary before going missing the same day as the clintons chef after rumors began to surface she had been giving Mr. Clinton sloppy toppy on his giggle stick. Some thought Dickenme and the chef ran away together until the chef was found dead of drowning. Ms. Dickenme was never seen or heard from again... some say she killed the chef and is in hiding. Others say hillary had her killed out of jelousy. The truth is we may never know what happened to Anita Dickenme..

    This is actually also done to find out that whether the water body is deep enough or ok to dive into it, as if the stone sinks then it means that is OK to dive whereas if it floats , it means that the water body is deep enough which is a dangerous indication of diving into it.

    It’s used for two reasons, it’s used to break the water tension for a smoother entrance into the water and it’s also used as something to aim for so you know if you have enough time for the flips, as it’s difficult to perceive distance when looking at a solid colour

      The surface tension bit is an absolute myth. Throwing a rock does nothing to make the dive easier. It’s origin was for divers to locate their entry point since finding exactly where you’re going to land in a sea of blue isn’t very easy. This origin however has been distorted by people thinking themselves smarter than they are. In this scenario he doesn’t even land in the bubbles.

    This is mostly done in areas where there is more surface water tension, like lakes. If the water is too still, the person jumping breaks the tension-that can be painful and destructive. But By throwing a stone first, cliff jumpers break the tension of the water.
