Photographer Steve Davey was lucky enough to witness the land diving take place on the island and said it was a great experience to be able to capture the ancient tradition on camera.
The 46-year-old from Brixton, London said: ‘I've always wanted to see land diving since I watched it on a David Attenborough documentary when I was a child and it was fascinating to finally witness it in person.
He said: ‘Land diving is a real part of the island's culture, the woman dress in traditional dress and the elder men chant as the men dive from the top of the tower.
‘The tower is just pieces of wood tied together with vines, it takes between two-three weeks to create and features a series of platforms at different heights.
‘It can only be used once because the platform is designed to crack and give way when you jump from it.
