Jacques Cousteau is credited for and I believe invented the modern SCUBA gear for diving, making diving a sport accessible to many.
Both it was Jacques Cousteau and Emile Gagnan who invented the modern scuba gear in 1942.
Lighting up the sky- well in a very real sense- Astronomer Royal Sir Edmund Halley- of comet fame- invented the Diving Bell in l7l7 ad . This was the patented model. You see he was involved in marine science also- As Above, So Below!
It is diving on a high diving board.
So that the scuba diver could go more streamline in the water.
Diving in some form has been around since ancient times. An ancient Roman tomb called "Tomba Del Tuffatore" depicting a scene of a young diver & dating back to 480 BC is the earliest evidence of sport diving. Competitive diving in modern times is most often credited to 17th century acrobats from Germany & Sweden. During the summer months, they would practice outside on the beaches. Acrobatics over the water evolved into "fancy diving" and the competitive sport it is today.
Leonard Norcross of Dixville, Maine invented the first underwater dive suit. He referred to this in his patent as diving armor.
In my diving club, there are no members in the US diving at the moment.
