is drumming up business for a vaudeville show in a remotewestern town. One of the main attractions is "Fearless Freep" and his high-dive act. As soon as Yosemite Sam hears the name "Fearless Freep", he goes into a joyful frenzy, buying as many tickets as he can. During the show, as Bugs is about to introduce Freep, he gets a telegram informing him that Freep is delayed by a storm and won't be able to appear until tomorrow. An angered Sam insists on seeing the high-diving act and forces Bugs at gunpoint to the top of a high-dive platform. But Bugs manages to pull out all his tricks and stops, and it is Sam who does all the diving, in a different comical setting nine separate times. 1: Sam pushes Bugs to the edge of the platform. Bugs tells Sam to cover his eyes while he puts on his bathing suit, and then proceeds to spin the board around so that Sam is at the diving edge. Bugs makes it look like he's taken the dive. Sam, muttering that he can't believe Bugs actually jumped, turns around and walks right off the edge. As Sam descends to the tank, Bugs zooms down the ladder and watches this dramatic scene from the audience saying, "This I gotta see." After Sam lands in the tank, it falls apart; the hoops break off, leaving the water intact. 2: Bugs begins jumping on the board and jumps on the board so hard that he sends Sam up, over his head and down. Bugs then realizes that he forgot to fill the tank with water, so he grabs a bucket of water and throws it down from the diving board past Sam. With Sam's encouragement, the water makes it into the tank, but Sam misses it altogether, smashing through the stage into the basement. 3: Sam walks to the end of the board and finds Bugs standing on the board upside-down. Bugs points out that it is actually SAM who is upside-down. Sam looks "up", sees the tank, and falls into it. 4: Having been verbally hit with "fightin' words", Bugs dares Sam to "step over this line", sending Sam down for the splash again 5: Sam is stopped by a door, and yells "Open up that door!" then turns to the audience and says: "Y'notice I didn't say Richard?". He backs up and charges towards the door, which Bugs opens at the last moment, leading Sam to another splash, this time assisted by an anvil given to him by Bugs. 6: Bugs, dressed as an Indian, points Sam to a "short-cut" in a desert-like setting. Sam thanks the "Indian" and takes the route, leading to yet another dive. After two more dives in which the setups are unseen, Sam finally has Bugs tied and standing on the edge of the platform, with Sam sawing away at the board, gloating: "Now ya smarty-pants, let's see ya get out-in this one! This time, you're a-diving!" However, as soon as Sam cuts through the board, it is the ladder and platform that falls, leaving the severed plank suspended in midair. Bugs turns to the camera and cracks: "I know this defies the law of gravity, but, you see, I never "studied" law!"
In a commentary by Greg Ford, it is described as "arguably the best of all" Bugs and Sam confrontations. Ford also refers to the ways Bugs tricks Sam as "almost idiotically simple".
