Geographic and historic distribution

This data would make the object's presence in popular culture throughout the world to be known better. For once there's no tradition to use them in my own country... Herle King 06:20, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

I came across this whilst browsing and I've tried to tidy it up and wikify it whilst preserving the original authors intentions. Could someone else can correct any wrong information as I don't know anything about the actual topic?

I just corrected one thing, but for the most part this article seems correct. It just is unorganized, and in places is poorly written.

Heh, this article is really dumb.

OK, I rewrote this, added some pics, feel free to update

I have found this photo for the dunk tank w/white shirt. the "before" - http://good-times.webshots.com/photo/1445466376074780335FlHzlU The "During" - http://good-times.webshots.com/photo/1445466903074780335OOLGKX The "after", notice the white sign with green writing in the background - http://good-times.webshots.com/photo/1445467476074780335rDtBQy

The article is general and brief. That is good. Well, now that we know how to say dunk tank in Thai สาวน้อยตกน้ำ, is there anyone here who can see it in other languages? (i.e. French, Spanish, Chinese, etc;) That would be greatly appreciated.

How come all the pictures are of girls getting dunked? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.231.237.130 (talk) 03:40, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

Re: Famous people to appear in a dunk tank

This is a good addition to an article that is some what improved. The one thing that is lacking though is documentation in this section. Where is the proof? This section should also have included Tessa Thompson, Heather Locklear, and Barbara Eden (of whom I could reference as having sat on the hot seat. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Argold100 (talk • contribs) 01:01, 10 November 2009 (UTC)

list of "famous people to appear in a dunk tank possibly innacurate?

The list of "famous people to appear in a dunk tank" includes Sarah Palin and Alyssa Milano, but I haven't found images, videos, articles, or any other evidence on the web that either women was ever actually in a dunk tank. Are you guys sure either one actually happened? Web wonder (talk) 02:31, 20 November 2009 (UTC)

Clothing

The section on clothing "forgets" to mention that some of the people being dunked don't wear anything at all - at least by the end of their dunking session. There are plenty of pictures on the web, in not so secret places, showing young ladies losing clothes as the session goes on. (I haven't seen any pictures of young men like that!)Librarian16 (talk) 22:08, 13 December 2010 (UTC)

Company bias?

Does it seem to anyone else odd that one company is mentioned in detail but no one else? It also seems to be reading like an ad and not a description of the object.--Johnhg7 (talk) 21:23, 23 December 2011 (UTC)

Good point. I'd like to add that this article is absolutely rediculous --Your Friend — Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.45.42.79 (talk) 07:14, 5 April 2012 (UTC)

U.S.-only, or found in other places too?

Does anyone know whether dunk tanks can be found outside of the United States/Canada? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dunktank Charlie (talk • contribs) 13:47, 9 April 2016 (UTC)

I doubt we will find information on it happening other places of the world, based on the sole fact alone it was derived from a racist game against african americans, but i will attempt to locate.Sheabutter98 (talk) 05:22, 8 June 2022 (UTC)

Much or most of the content here was added by SPAs editing this article only. As a result it's bloated with inappropriate detail. EEng 04:55, 16 March 2017 (UTC)
