| Description: | Sports: Atlantic City, School For Comedy Diving. 'Prof' Russ Dotson and his pupils provoke plenty of laughs during a day's session at school on the steel pier. It's simple to learn. Outlandish costumes and plenty of splash. Chuckles by the bushel. Man in a business suit pretends to accidentally fall off diving board. One very funny stunt - realistic enough to look genuinely dangerous, at first - slow motion view as man runs toward the edge of pier, pretends to trip while jumping over the railing, and goes into the water. Pratfalls, silly dives. | |
