OK, Joe Gerlach was the only one to perform. Both Evil and Walinda hurt themselves during practice. Joe refused to do a practice plunge unless they paid double. That's why Joe's performance is not available. There is great jealousy of Joe!! Joe defected to America in 1956 while Competing at the Olympics when Joe's native country of Hungary. Won a national championship at Michigan was first World professional diving championship. Joe's Sponge Plunge came about after being spokesman for "Port a pit" The foam landing pad for Track and field, High Jump and pole vault. About 10 stories from a hot air balloon. Early on he went face first after a jaw injury. Joe said his birthday was the day he arrived in America.
