His biography is worth a read. If he didn't do it on his first attempt he kept trying until he got pneumonia and then tried it again. The guy only knew when to stop when he was doing stuff he knew he shouldn't be doing as a kid and was pulled up for it by his uncle. Good shout hope he's doing exceptionally well for himself and his own.
Hey ex swimmer and coach for 15 years (swam 11, coached for 4 until covid hit), the key is to emulate a dolphin kick as you go up, and to push off by standing on tbe balls of your feet and rolling forward a bit as you push off. I used to do this a ton after races in pools with ledges by the blocks or shallows at meets.
I mean I don't know the Andrew tate look alike in this video, but based on just how bad Tate is, the chances are that the dude in this video is 100x better
The trick is to fold later and to fold fast. The moment to get your legs up needs to be as late as possible because of the resistance inherent to the water. If you start bending your hips and knees too early you won't reach the surface with enough escape velocity. So it's not only explosive strength, it is very much technique based as well. Nice to stumble onto this, I didnt know it was a thing. Will attempt this again, its been 20 years!
@@GraalWorlds Andrew Tate is definitely jacked and pretty huge. Have you seen some of the recent pictures of Andrew Tate? Andrew Tate is probably close to the size of the guy in this video. But he’s probably a bit smaller if I had to guess. That could be to a few factors. Andrew Tate is 6’4 which makes it harder to fill in his frame, and the guy in this video doesn’t look very tall. To my knowledge, Andrew Tate doesn’t bulk that often as I always see him shredded. He also doesn’t use steroids, so if the guy on this video is on steroids then Andrew Tate definitely has a huge unfair advantage there. And Andrew Tate is more focused on his fighting rather than bodybuilding. He trains more like an athlete than a bodybuilder.
Guys, your body floats in water. The deeper you go the greater the force of the water pushed you back up. After that it's fluid mechanics. Notice he goes down then up which gives a rebound effect and also decreased the resistance of water due to turbulence as compared to a static jump...
Do it again! Please, it’s entirely confidence, trust me. The reason you didn’t make it is you gotta tuck your knees in as soon as possible and trust your body

The difference is that the first guy do not want to raise his legs in the water but let his body elevates enough to raise them mostly above water. This way he avoids a lot of water friction drag.
Bringing your upper body as low as you can in the pool, breaks the surface of the water when trying to exit. Therefore allowing no vacuum on your legs lifting up and out of the pool.
His shoulders go under the water, this breaks the water tension in a wider area on the surface as he emerges and creates less friction for the lower half of your body as it pushes more water out of the way with the top half of your body, allowing the lower half to make it fully out of the water. Neither of you went that low.
Same trick for getting out of the water onto a boat. Sink down low, then let your buoyancy accelerate you upwards, timing your kick in the middle. For the boat (or the side of a pool), you then twist around and sit down on the edge.
Legitimately we were required to do this by our coaches during swim practice for our outdoor pool. It has a gutter that is level with the water then about 4 inches past that, AND 3-4 inches taller than the water level, we have to jump out of water that was about where the guy’s was in the original clip and up onto the flat pool deck past the gutter. It was metal, rest in piece my chins. But yes it’s possible! This stuff is entirely about believing in yourself. That’s literally all it takes.
we do this at swim practice sometimes, just for the heck of it. its a 4 foot deep shallow end, its not fun missing it. I remember the first time I was able to do it I was overjoyed lol
