Its freakin' TV, probably all fake anyway. Maybe they have a Suh double.
All stunts involving Suh will be performed by Jon Heder....a.k.a. Napoleon Dynamite.

I mentioned I happened to see a little of the first episode of the Fox diving show. It was really them doing the dives. And the appeal of this show would never be to see these people dive well...it would be to watch and hope they belly flop or hurt themselves. We don't even watch diving when people do it really well.
And now to my surprise it turns out Suh is doing a new ABC show called Splash...which is strange because Fox had horrid ratings. So in true Hollywood fashion they all just rip each other off. If you ABC has a hit game show, NBC has to do the same one, etc.
But look at these names and tell me it's not about hoping you will see a train wreck. If they aren't doing risky dives then there is 0 appeal to this show...and it will be cancelled right away.
Though Fox?s diving show Stars in Danger did a total belly flop in the ratings, that hasn?t swayed ABC from moving ahead with Splash, the (new) name of its celebrity diving show that?ll premiere Tuesday, March 19. Wonder who?s willing to wear a Speedo on a 10-meter high dive in front of (with any luck for ABC) millions and millions of people?
Here are the ?stars? who will be throwing those triple, nah-who-are-we kidding-I-mean single tucks into the pool, with the help of Greg Louganis:
1. Louie Anderson, comedian. Yeah, I know.
2. Drake Bell, star of Nick?s old Drake & Josh.
3. Chuy Bravo. If you are a Chelsea Handler fan, you?ll remember him as her personal assistant.
4. Nicole Eggert. She?s continuing the Baywatch tradition of diving in primetime (two ex-stars of the syndicated show, David Chokachi and Alexandra Paul, did the Fox show).
5. Keshia Knight Pulliam. She played Rudy on The Cosby Show. ?Member her?
6. Ndamukong Suh. A gridiron, not reality, star. Member of the Detroit Lions.
7. Katherine Webb. Former Miss Alabama as well as an on-camera personality.
8. Kendra Wilkinson. First The Girls Next Door, then Dancing with the Stars, and now this!
Two more celebrity divers will be announced later. Hot damn!
I guess it's a hit in Europe. Speed ahead to the 1:45 mark and watch this fat chick do a face plant.

No clue why Drake would even participate in this.
I'm not going to lie...I might want to see Louie Anderson and Chuy dive.
Suh's a hero.
Image problem solved.....let us build monuments in his likeness and praise his name in all its glory!!!
Hal a SUH ya!!!
