Celebrate America’s 250th With the Return Of Great Escape’s High Dive Show

As the United States of America celebrates it's 250th year of independence, there are a number of way you can get in on the fun. There are concerts, fireworks displays and, for a limited time, you can relive a high diving attraction made popular at Storytown USA.

For a limited engagement, Enchanted Parks Great Escape, formerly Six Flags in Queensbury, is celebrating July 4th week with the All-American 250 High Dive Show. You might recall a similar high dive show at Storytown USA and Six Flags from 1975 until 2014.

If you have yet to experience one, a high dive show is a live, extreme acrobatic performance where daredevils dive into a very small pool from as much as 80 feet high and the pool is typically only 9 feet to 12 feet deep!
