📍 Mostar, BiH 🇧🇦 Watching the legendary dive from Stari Most was unforgettable. 💦 Cool facts: • This bridge-jumping tradition dates back over 450 years to the bridge's completion in 1566. • Stari Most stands 24 meters (78 ft) above the icy Neretva River, where summer water temperatures are often just 8–12°C (46–53°F). • Once a rite of passage for local young men, today the tradition is kept alive by the Mostar Diving Club. • Local divers perform daily demonstrations, while visitors can jump only after completing mandatory training and receiving approval from the official diving club. • The annual Mostar Diving Competition attracts elite divers from around the world. A tradition built on courage, history, and incredible skill. Would you take the leap? 🌉💙 #Mostar #StariMost #BridgeJumping #UNESCO #Neretva
