KING of the SWAMP 2024: THE FIRST EVER NIGHT DEATH DIVING (DØDS) COMPETITION

October 17, 2024 By Joel Runyon Leave a Comment

Death diving.

In a swamp.

At a night.

When Jonny brought up the idea of hosting a death diving invitational in his own backyard swamp – it seemed insane. Crazy. Impossible?

We said F it, went for it and I think we pulled off one of the coolest events of the year.

20 athletes.

7 rounds.

6 judges.

Zero eliminations.

Only 1 King of the Swamp.

Here’s what went down.

This was a lot of fun.

Want to catch more death diving? Watch our documentary: TOUGH – on the emerging sport.

Death Diving hype reel.

And watch this viral reel and this one too.

Keep pushing your limits. Do something impossible.
