I'm trying to figure out what the little pool is that the divers get in
after they dive...

Is it to get warm? Why not just take a warm shower?

Why do they ALL go in there? ...and sometimes only for a few seconds.

Cess pool for when there is a cessation of diving

Well, I saw the ladies 10m diving event and I saw a lot of steam coming
from the water. That figures - there were quite a few hotties there,
especially that pretty little girl from Canada that won the bronze.
So, yeah, they go in there to 'warm up'.......

What a riot! ROTFLMBO!
All kidding aside, the divers go into the "cesspool" to rinse off the
chlorine fromm the pool water.

I thought it was to warm their muscles after the main pool -- which
supposedly doesn't have a lot of chlorine in it -- the Australian Olympic
pools have some special filtering systems so that chlorine isn't necessary
[and hot tubs always have more chemicals than large pools because they are
generally much dirtier]

It isn't chlorinated because some swimmers have low chlorine tolerance,
particularly
in their eyes. The filtering system is oxygen based.

I don't know what the little pool is for.

That reminds me of that golfer who is allergic to lawn :)

: I don't know what the little pool is for.

I assume it's because accelerating into a body of water
at 9.8ms2 stings like a ***, and the little pool is
there to help people get back on the horse. :)

I think the *little pool* is a *hot tub*--so the divers can stay loosened up
between dives--too bad they don't serve margaritas there!
