Wet Tech - Hatfield & McCoy

The specific title "Wet Tech" (or Wet Technical Stage Crew) at the Hatfield & McCoy Dinner Feud in Pigeon Forge is a highly specialized live-production role.

It supports the show's famous 22-foot-deep diving hole, which features high-diving stunts, splashing comedy, and diving dogs.

• Aquatic Stage Operations:
  Managing the mechanical lifts, traps, and moving stage elements that transition the floor from a solid stage to an open diving pool during the show.
• Deck Safety & Cueing:
  Ensuring the splash zones and diving platforms are clear of debris, managing props used in water sequences, and verifying visual safety cues for the divers and high-diving performers.
• Water Effects Maintenance:
  Operating and troubleshooting specialized water systems, including underwater lighting, pumps, splash-back drains, and pool filtration systems.
• Pre/Post-Show Maintenance:
  Performing daily checks on mechanical deck seals, water levels, and emergency underwater safety equipment.

• Experience:
  
  1+ years in live theater tech, stage crew, or theme park stunt show operations.
• Aquatic Familiarity:
  Comfort working directly over and around deep water. Standard scuba certification or basic lifeguard safety knowledge is a massive plus, though companies often provide on-the-job training.
• Physical Demands:
  Ability to lift up to 50+ lbs, climb tall scaffolding or diving platforms, and work dynamically in a humid, high-energy environment.
• PADI certification is required.
