THE REMAINING SIX CELEBRITY DIVERS WILL TAKE IT TO THE TOP, ON ABC'S "SPLASH"

Each Celebrity Will Have to Dive from the 10 Meter Platform; One Will Be Eliminated in a Final Dive-Off

"Episode 105" - The remaining six celebrity divers will have to face their ultimate fear, launching themselves off the 10-meter high-dive platform. After each celebrity has taken the plunge from three stories high, the bottom two scorers will compete in a dive-off to determine who will be sent home, on "Splash," TUESDAY, APRIL 16 (8:00-9:00 p.m., ET) on ABC.

"Splash" marks the first time ten celebrities will train and compete in regulation platform and springboard diving at dizzying heights in front of a weekly poolside audience. After training with professional divers and being mentored by the world's most decorated and medaled diving legend, Greg Louganis, their dives will be critiqued by two judges, London Olympic U.S. Gold medalist David Boudia and Australian Olympic athlete and USA Dive Team director Steve Foley.

"Splash" is from Eyeworks USA and is based on the breakout hit and Dutch format, "Celebrity Splash." It is executive-produced by JD Roth, Todd A. Nelson, Brant Pinvidic and Josh Greenberg.
