Extreme skier Rory Bushfield was the first celebrity diver to take home the grand prize on ABC's SPLASH. The daredevil beat out Baywatch's Nicole Eggert and Drake & Josh's Drake Bell to win the trophy. Said the champ, 'I don't think any skier would be impressed if I got beat by a couple of actors.'

About SPLASH:

"Splash" marked the first time 10 celebrities trained and competed in regulation platform and springboard diving at dizzying heights in front of a weekly poolside audience. Leading up to the competition, the world's most decorated and medaled diving legend, Greg Louganis, gave each celebrity weeks of training.

Each dive was critiqued by the judges, London Olympic U.S. Gold medalist David Boudia and Australian Olympic athlete and USA Dive Team director Steve Foley. "Splash" premiered TUESDAY, MARCH 19 on The ABC Television Network.
