Stars in Danger: The High Dive" Finale Filmed at GAC to Air Jan. 9

See stars from TV, film, sports and pop culture plunge into a whole new pool

when the two-hour special event STARS IN DANGER: THE HIGH DIVE premieres

Wednesday, Jan. 9 (8 -10 PM ET) on FOX.

The program?s finale was filmed before a capacity crowd at Greensboro Aquatic

Centerlast month.

Based on a long-running German format, STARS IN DANGER: THE HIGH DIVE, was the

ultimate test for eight celebrities who stepped to the edge and took a flying

leap (or momentous belly flop) into diving history. But, before coming to the

GAC, they completed a crash-course in diving techniques overseen by renowned

diving coaches. After an intense training period, they competed in a series of

Olympic-style dives, including solo high diving and synchronized diving, from a

variety of heights. With the help of Olympic diving medalist and commentator

Troy Dumais, viewers will also get a poolside look at the courage and

perseverance ? as well as the twists, turns and flips ? that go into turning a

celebrity into an expert ? or not so expert ? diver.

Participating celebrities included:

? "Jersey Shore" star JWoww

? Pro surfer Bethany Hamilton

? "Baywatch" and Lifetime movie veteran Alexandra Paul

? "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star Kim Richards

? "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star Kyle Richards
