Sorry Joe...

One of my favorite things to do in college was cliff jump (the Harding guys will know about Lake Heber). If I remember right 40 feet didn't hurt that bad.

Yeah but I was reading an article on those and they said that since it typically throws you a bit forward and you are already travelling at 35-40 mph, you end up hitting the water at like 55mph, which they equated to jumping off a 70-80 foot cliff. Add to that you typically aren't controlling how you land either.
