One of the worldâs oldest extreme sports came to one of its oldest cities for the first time Sunday.
Red Bullâs Cliff Diving series, now in its 11th year, brought the superstars of the cliff diving world to Pigeon Rocks, in Beirutâs Raouche. Participants leaped, twisted and somersaulted off the limestone outcrop into the sea below for a chance to win the coveted King Kahekili trophy, named for the Hawaiian chief credited with the birth of cliff diving.
