Nick Johnston in his first ever video montage did a great job highlighting the American Olympic trials. (The edit took him a week.)

Two of the featured Olympian divers — Haley Ishimatsu and Mary Beth Dunnichay — are 15yrs-old. They would be too young for Beijing if they were gymnasts. Divers do not have a minimum age requirement.
I’m not hearing any outcry from the diving community that 14 or 15yr-old divers are somehow under too much pressure to be allowed to compete in the Olympics.

Olympic diving competition runs Aug. 10th – 23rd. Good luck to all competitors.
