   A lot of the stuff you see in Cleats is taken from real life–almost verbatim. This strip was based on something my lifeguarding daughter witnessed earlier in the summer.

   we used to jump off a 3 meter diving board at the local pool, trying to make the biggest splashes possible. my little brother was diving off of it at the age of four. we regularly would see kids climb up for the jump and then think better of it. the funniest gags are generally those with realism involved. this one (obviously) brought back memories. thanks Bill

   This also reminds me of two scenes - near the beginning and near the end - of The Neverending Story, Part II, starring the late great lamented Jonathan Brandis.
