Bungy Jumping

[Tom H Conwy exile]

I did it in Queenstown over that massive lake. I don't like heights and didn't fancy inching along a bridge shitting myself, so I did one by starting on ground level me and an instructor secured to two chairs, and pulled by a speed boat till we paraglided to 600ft and I then bungeed from there, it was the second highest in the world at the time. It was great. Because I started on ground level and rose sharply I didn't have time to get that vertigo bit and once we'd reached the required height I just jumped. The views were spectacular. If anyone doesn't like heights try that option. It worked for me

Did my 2nd one over a concrete pub carpark.

Was in a concrete pub car park in 2001 having a bank holiday ale when a lad went face first into the car park and died. Shyster dodgy company set it up. The proper ones like the OP mentions will be fine though. Ive done one myself abroad, just after Frank Bruno beat McCall for the title. 1995 maybe?

No, you're alright.

That`s where I did it, Victoria falls in 1993, it`s scary watching that video though as it was alot more primitive when I did it. It was awesome & I`d recommend anyone to do it but it`s over too quickly, white water rafting down the Zambesi is better if you`re ever there

I did it between 2 cooling towers in Soweto about 5 years ago...great experience...although I guess the Goldeneye jump is the ultimate one!!!

Looks like one for the Darwin awards. Detached retina, broken ankle, looks fun.

Great fun go for it. As mentioned don't pause when you're up. Expect to scream uncontrollably :-)

Just got back from NZ. Did the bungy. Fucking scary, most intense thing I've ever done. 134m of raw, undiluted adrenaline. Anyway, time to catch up on The Ashes thread.

I've did a skydive and a bungy in Australia. Bungy was ten times scarier than the skydive! Skydive was just pure fun, best feeling of my life. The best way I can describe them is that a skydive feels like you're flying, but a bungy feels like you're falling!
