My siblings and I didn't do that as kids. I always hated diving boards and the idea of jumping in pools. Doing stunts like that (i.e. doing a side pose while reading a newspaper) is a recipe for disaster. Eventually.
When we were little, we used to drink gallons of water or koolaid at one time to see who could drink the most the fastest.
Years later, I learned it is called "drowning" and people have been seriously injured and died from that. It has happened with water drinking contests and has been used in hazing practices. Does that mean that it wasn't dangerous when we used to do it? No, it means that the people years ago who were seriously injured and/or died weren't publicized.
