Stupid idiots! >:(
Not only stupid idiots but extremely selfish too, since helicopters and police and hospital staff had to spend time on their self-indulgent stupidity.

I totally agree, however I do wonder where they got the idea that lockdown was essentially over from?

No doubt you "have no sympathy" for them as usual, no matter how bad their injuries may be.

No sympathy whatsoever, it is their own stupid fault. >:( My sympathies go towards their rescuers who have much better things to do at this time of crisis.

People who injure themselves diving into water typically suffer a broken neck, and end up quadriplegic for the rest of their lives, which is a hell of a price to pay for a moment's stupidity - but you, with typically heartless self-righteousness, have no sympathy. (I realise that we don't know what the injuries are, but they are described as "serious".)

They should have thought of that before they dived.

How do you know that that is what they thought, or what their 'idea'was? You may well be right, but I don't think anyone would have questioned them about what they thought while transporting them to hospital. So you have made an assumption.

Many of you will, as I have been doing, been taking part in quizzes over 'lockdown'. So I thought I would put up my own little lockdown quiz.

1. What is the correct swearword for Dominic Cummings?
2. How many ers, ah, and ums have been used by Boris Johnson?
3. Will Nicola Sturgeon win Hairdresser of the Year
And 4. Will Nike sponsor it?
5. Matt Hancock. Why?
6. Who is the Welsh bloke?
7. What is a lert?
8. What day is today?
9. Who is the official opposition
(A) Piers Morgan
(B) Emily Maitlis
(C) Jon Snow

10. How many bottles of wine have I drunk over lockdown?

Trentvoyager:-  "I totally agree, however I do wonder where they got the idea that lockdown was essentially over from?"

Over from what?
...

Made me think of Joni Ereakson Tada who dived and was paralysed thereafter. I hope that is not the case with these people. I don't know how old they are but imagine they are young.

People have been going to the seaside recently and will do so even more now.  I don't think lockdown or lack of it has anything to do with the matter.

Even better would be to get rid of the comma-splice and use a more natural word-order, thus: "I totally agree. However, I do wonder where they got the idea that the lockdown was essentially over from".
