How to perform the perfect Cannonball at a pool party

So you're at a pool party and really want to make a SPLASH?! No better way than to perform a perfect Cannonball. Have even more fun and make it a Cannonball contest!

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• A pool

1. Take a look in the pool and make sure you have space to make your big splash. You don't want to jump on top of anyone.

2. If you do not have a diving board, take a few steps back away from the edge of the pool. You're gonna want to get a bit of a running start.

3. As you launch yourself into the air, pull your legs up to your chest and wrap your arms around your legs and hold on tight! The tighter the ball, the greater the splash. Close your eyes and hold your breath and get ready for the SPLASH!

4. For added affect you can yell, "Cannonball!" just before entering the water. This should result in a big time splash and cheers from your onlookers.

Tips & Warnings

• Be careful - don't run too fast along the outside of the pool, you don't want to slip and hurt yourself.
• Don't splash people who don't want to get wet!
