As a way of learning to swim, diving head-first into water has its merits. But when there are two hungry alligators awaiting your arrival, it could well have a downside.
Yet later today, 58-year-old Josephine Fitzgerald from Callan, Co Kilkenny, will learn the hard way whether the swimming lessons she has taken have worked or not.
The mother of one will dive into an alligator pool in Co Kilkenny in a bid to raise funds for Breast Cancer Ireland. Josephine is undertaking the feat as a tribute to her daughter Cathy, 35, who is battling cancer a second time.
รขโฌลI canรขโฌโขt really swim at all,รขโฌย says Josephine.
รขโฌลI have been taking lessons. Iรขโฌโขm not great, but Iรขโฌโขll tell you one thing รขโฌโ if those alligators donรขโฌโขt like me, Iรขโฌโขll set an Olympic record on my way out of their pool.
