This summer, Roberto decided to be a clown and did a belly flop off of the side of the pool. He got plenty of laughs and decided it didn't hurt too bad, so he decided to do a belly Hop off of the diving board. Roberto was sorry he made that bad decision.

Compare the amount of kinetic energy that Roberto transferred to the surface of the water and why the outcome of the belly flop was different when leaping off of the diving board instead of the side of the pool.​
