There was a man who was about 30 years old. He wasn't very religious, but he still went to church every once in a while and prayed before going to bed. He was a very avid diver, and one night we went up to the indoor pool to practice his diving. It was all closed and locked up when he got there, but he had a key because he was a VIP. So he got inside and climbed up the stairs to the diving board. Behind the diving board is this really big picture window and the pool looked really pretty with the moon shining in on it. Anyways, the man climbed up the later and walked down to the edge of the board. He stood up straight and tall, with his arms spread out horizontally. Right before he dived, he caught a glimpse of his shadow on the opposite wall. With the way he was standing, his shadow looked like Jesus on The Cross. The man thought that this might be a sign from God, so he knelt down and said a quick prayer. He stood up again and was getting ready to dive when the janitor turned on the lights. And the pool was empty - there was no water in it.
