Teenagers jumping off Devils Bridge at Kirkby Lonsdale

In August 1995 we had a stunning day out at Devils bridge in Kirkby Lonsdale. Hundreds of people were swimming in the river as the water was warm for once,This short video shows a few teenagers jumping off the bridge including two girls at the same time. I am the 'well built' man who jumps off at the end. I think the drop is about 35 foot and I remember touching the bottom at about 12 foot ( I know the depth under the bridge from scuba diving the river a few times)

It's about 12 feet deep under the bridge

I must be the exception that proves the rule as I used to swing both ways until I was stupid enough to jump off the cliffs at Dorothea Quarry which ended my jumping career!
