Can you believe this!!!
yah...Olympic fever, you feelin it? 

Check this out, way back in the day The Olympics featured 2 crazy events: Plunge Diving and Obstacle Swimming!  I heard about them on history.com.

In 1900 at the Olympics in Paris, France there was Obstacle Swimming in the river where swimmers had to take on hurtles and other weird stuff while they were swimming!  Then at The St. Louis Olympics in 1904 athletes took part in Plunge Diving where they see who could dive and then stay under the water the longest!  Can you imagine!  No surprise both events were gone from the games in 1908!

What's your favorite Olympic Event....Kella likes the male swimmers!  :-)
