Orlando Duque, the Colombian with the characteristic ponytail, is the most successful cliff diver in the world. The 13-time world champion from Colombia looks back on his childhood growing up in Cali and takes us on an adventurous journey around the world: from leaping as a burning torch at an adventure park to the heights of the Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series, 27 metres above the water – a feat that leaves no room for error. »Only seconds lie between all these different worlds; the nervous concentration, standing above the crowds, the moment of push off, falling, the precision, the noise, submersion, the silence, the relief, only a dive can give such a condensed world of experiences.« Orlando Duque

In a perfect world everyone would be able to attend great sporting events—the Super Bowl, the Masters, the Stanley Cup Playoffs.

Featuring 40 original cocktail recipes specially crafted with the world's most famous sporting events in mind, you can impress your friends with drinks such as "Augusta on My Mind," "Lord Stanley Sour," and "The Brickyard Toast." And when the game slows down (or your team starts to lose), Sport Bar offers amazing, often unbelievable sports facts that will, when paired with a delicious cocktail, spark conversation among your friends: Why are Roman numerals used to number Super Bowls? How many calories does the average cyclist burn during one stage of the Tour de France? Who was the first woman jockey to ever ride in the Kentucky Derby? So pull out your team jerseys and let Sports Bar inspire you to gather your friends together for the game and a great time.
