Went a couple of weeks ago with my gf and a few mates. Was an awesome day.
highest jump was 22m.. Did some low ones first to get used to it. Then had a little swim around the bay around Durdle Door.

needless to say the big splashes was me lol

I like it round Durdle Door and Lulworth. Get some good beer down that way.

Whats with the silly signmaking? Is it a cheap mo farah/gareth bale knock off?

Also, I thought this was called tombstoning?

Looks alright anyway, although the first 2 ''jumps'' weren't worthy of being filmed.

love durdle door and have fished there plenty of times.

Pulpit Rock in Portland Bill is another good one, always see idiots jumping off that: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hudt9HSnx2Q

Incredibly dangerous tide though.

Loads of places in Newquay to do this.


Just be careful, either go with a proper company that do it, or find the reputable places to go so you do not get injured.

Anyone who does it without a guide is a mug!

Not really, I know people who have lived in Cornwall for years and do it in loads of places.

You just need experience.


Don't be the normal wanker who jumps off the biggest rock they can thinking that it is only water below.

Yeah we went with a proper company. Was a great laugh... Way more swimming than I expected but I would do it again for sure.
