Apparently, you want to hit feet first, mouth open, nose plugged with your ass cheeks clenched as tight as possible, you know, so the water stays out. I am also told that you would hit the water going 55 mph and the water will be about as soft as a sidewalk would be if you hit it wrong.
Yeah, I don't even like hitting the water off of a 3m high dive. I can't imagine 30m.

For 100', I'd want hiking boots and a cup. And I'm sure it would still suck.
