Bungy Jump

This is an old video from 2007 in Queenstown, New Zealand. But I only just recently figured out how to copy DVDs onto my computer, so this is my first chance to share it. This was a 43 metre (141 foot) jump off the Kawarau Bridge.

When I watched the video, I noticed that the guy totally has to pry my right hand off the handhold. They tell you to jump straight out, directly away from the platform, but I was too scared to do anything other than just let myself tip forward and fall off.



The jump site is operated by AJ Hackett. They have about 4 bungy sites in the Queenstown area, and they say that the Kawarau Bridge is the world's first commercial bungy site.
