Interestingly, another high-priced item was included in the settlement. Apparently, they had an expensive "air chamber" in their home -- and the former Olympian want to keep it. We are guessing this is a hyperbaric chamber that reportedly reduces inflammation, oxygenates injured muscle, and regenerates skeletal muscle.

"(Johnny) to receive S7000 from (Louganis) as his share of the Air Chamber to be retained by (Louganis)," the document reads.

As expected, Louganis is keeping possession of all of his Olympic memorabilia, including anything in the couple's properties or businesses. "All Greg Louganis Memorabilia, whether in (Greg's) home and office or held in the offices of Loeb & Loeb, is confirmed as the sole and separate property of (Louganis)," the settlement says.

The good news, the former couple won't be fighting over money, as each of them is forgoing spousal support from one another. Plus, they don't have any minor children that might trigger child support. "In consideration of the other terms of this agreement, and whereas both spouses are fully self-supporting, we each waive all right or claim which we may now have to receive support from the other. No court shall have jurisdiction to award spousal support at any time regardless of any circumstances that may arise," it says.

A few other small items are in the agreement including Greg keeping his Prius, and Johnny the Lexus along with keeping their own bank accounts.
