International DODS Diving Federation (IDDF)

International DODS Diving Federation, also known as IDDF, is a privately owned organization headquartered in Norway. Founded in 2008, the federation has approximately 10 employees and reported $142,857 in revenue as of 2023. The organization focuses on the extreme sport of dods diving, also known as death diving, which originated in Norway. This amateur sport involves divers jumping from high platforms in a horizontal position before curling into a pike position just before entering the water, landing first with their feet and hands or knees and elbows to avoid serious injury. Unlike traditional diving, the sport emphasizes maintaining a dramatic pose for as long as possible mid-air, rather than minimizing splash or perfecting form.
