Olympics diving scoring system?

Question

Just curious why the judges don't use slow motion camera when it comes to scoring for diving in the Olympics?

There's chance that their score may be influenced by the crowd.. which of course will favor the home team. I think the Chinese will still win all the medals but the margins won't be that big.

Answer 1

They are experts. When you're an expert your eyes are so fast in recognizing anomalies/mistakes compared to just a spectator. I can only speak for the synchronized diving coz i didnt see the rest of the diving....Chinese well deserved the big margin lead. They're on a different level. Very identical.
