my brother once told me this story that a man did a belly flop off the 10m diving board at the adelaide a aquatic centre. His belly split open from the impact and his blood and guts went everywhere.i never went swimming in the diving pool again. it took me 5 years to realise this story wasnt real and by that time i had left adelaide.
Gotta love those Adelaide urban myths - the reason I never wanted to go on the waterslides at Magic Mountain was the rumours about kids sticking razorblades to the side with chewing gum....
The myths must have been the only excitement in Adelaide?
no the main excitement in Adelaide was waiting for that special day when you find your first dead body
I thought the waterslides-and-razor blades urban legend could be found at every waterslide in the civilised world (I've certainly heard it in Canberra).
