Before They Were Stars: Jason Statham Dives at the 1990 Commonwealth Games

Two days ago, I posted the jaw-dropping footage of Jason Statham dancing in a speedo in a music video from the early nineties. Now here’s some jaw-dropping footage of Jason Statham in a speedo (and with a full head of hair!) diving off a springboard and a platform at the 1990 Commonwealth Games. Actually, this footage isn’t so unusual when you consider that Statham was actually pretty successful at this endeavour in his youth and was a member of Britain’s National Diving Squad for twelve years. Representing his country in the Commonwealth Games was probably Statham’s career peak, but sadly, his last dive here leaves a lot to be desired and the judges’ scores reflect that.
