Acapulco’s cliff divers return to performing for tourists after deadly Hurricane Otis


By AGENCY

The devastating storm – recorded at top-intensity Category 5 when it roared ashore in late October – left nearly 50 people dead and another 30 missing, some 90% of tourist establishments affected and the once-vibrant port city licking its wounds.
