on Springboard the highest possible difficulty dive is the \n3 meter 409C Inward 4 ½ Somersault at 4.2 dd but ive never seen it done. The next is the 5339D Reverse 1 ½ Somersault 4 ½ Twister dive off of a 3 meter board at 3.7 dd.  The inward 405B 1 & 3 meters dive Pagglio mentioned is the one youre more likely to see someone actually do though unless youre at a major diving event. the link to the FINA dd dive chart is below.\n\nThere are several 10 meter tower (platform)dives that are 3.7 dd and in general Tower or "Platform" diving is the more dangerous to dive.

"the longest that humans can hold their breath for is about 2 1/2 minutes, and this is for pearl divers who make a living by holding their breath underwater. Most of us can only hold our breath for 1 minute."  (see Source)\n\nI think that there are extremes (world record holders) that are nowhere near the average.\n\nI read somewhere that there's a trick to holding your breath for a long time, and it is to eliminate the nitrogen from your body.  I forget how you do it (sorry), but the point was that it's the presence of nitrogen, not the absence of oxygen, that causes the FIRST problem for humans.

I don't know what the world record is but I know it's much longer than one minute. I think I've maxed out at 1:20 myself. My source says 12:47 for an Italian freediver but I don't know if that is the latest.

Drowned Alive\n \nDavid Blaine at Lincoln Center, sharing a moment with a fan as spectators look on (2 May 2006).On May 1, 2006, Blaine was submerged in an 8 foot (2.4 m) diameter, water-filled sphere (isotonic saline, 0.9% salt) in front of the Lincoln Center in New York for a planned seven days and seven nights, using tubes for air and nutrition. He concluded this event by attempting to hold his breath underwater to break the world record of 8 minutes, 58 seconds. In a change to the original stunt plans, whilst attempting to break this record, Blaine also tried to free himself from handcuffs and chains put on him upon coming out after the week in the sphere.[2] Blaine held his breath for seven minutes and eight seconds before being pulled up by the support divers, thus failing in his attempt.\n\nCritics such as Mark Harris of the British Free Diving Association have been reported before the stunt saying that Blaine would have had an unfair advantage.[3] In any case, Blaine's feat could not have been officially recognized, as judges from the International Association for the Development of Apnea (AIDA) were not present to verify that Blaine breathed no pure oxygen for at least two hours prior to beginning his attempt. For reference, the world record for holding one's breath after having breathed pure oxygen is closer to fifteen minutes.[4]\n\nBlaine did nonetheless succeed in setting a record (as yet unrecognized by any record-keeping institution) for being fully submerged in water for more than seven days straight (170+ hours).\n\nIt is expected that Blaine will suffer medical problems as a result of his stunt.[5]\n\nIn an interview on the Howard Stern Show on Sirius satellite radio, Blaine spoke of the week long fasting he did before the "drowning alive" stunt, to prevent the need for solid waste issues. For urine, he wore an external, condom-style catheter.

about thirty to thirty-five feet at most even though you are diving from a high area the water will push you up plus the loss of speed upon impact doesn't help either so you might reach 30 but you might reach 20 -25 i used to jump from a 100 foot cliff and i don't remember how deep i went but it was a lot less than i though it would be

By double click do you mean the hitch kick?? There was an american sprinter/long jumper called Jesse Owens from ohio who, in 1935 set a world record of 8.13m, it stood for 25 years before being broken again. I think the hitch kick just evovled, it is adopted and modified by every male jumper and selected females (however they tend to employ the hang technique).
