| Description: | Swimming Antics. Three shots of synchronized swimming in a circle formation. The last shot shows the swimmers all kicking inward at once. The water beomes very wavy. A monkey and a someone's feet try to stay on a rolling log in the pool. The mokey scampers around and finally jumps on the rope attached to the log and pool end. He leaps from the rope the pool end and someone picks him up. People do diving acrobatics. A guy leaps off the diving board backards. Two men in striped bathing suits grab his legs as he leaps off and all three go into the water. One guy runs up the back of two others, pigbacks himself to a man sitting on the shoulders of a third guy and they go over into the water. Two of the three remaining men turn back to back linking arms while the third guy runs up and grabs the uplifted legs. His momentum pushes them off the diving board into the water all jumbled up. Men play leapfrog off the diving board. Five men all dive into the water from diving board. | |
