My 1st Bungee Jump

YouTube - My 1st bungee jump....

I have been thinking about doing this for years and years, finally grew the balls yesterday and no regrets, i will be looking for bigger and better ones!!

Oh and yes i recommend this highly to anyone. It feels totally unnatural when you are up there looking down and every instinct tells you to stop being so stupid but once you launch its like WooooooooooooooW.

 

[russell]

CRIKEY WELL DONE.
They do leave you dangling for quite awhile at the end, don't they? Never thought about that bit!

 

[Cadelin]

Looks scary, well done!

1) Am I the only person that thought that cord looked rather frayed?
2) Where is that place?

 

[old.Tohtori]

You know, it's awfully brave to post a thing like this on the internets when you know how cruel people can be.

...


....so without further ado!

Nice moobs

Well done, bravo and all that

 

[soze]

Nice one but i bet that while shuffling over to the door i would trip and fall out

 

[Fafnir]

Bah pussy do it without the bungie to feel the real rush...

 

[Ezteq]

lol i'd love to try this but i heard that you can detach your retinas if you are not careful.

anyway well done!!

Now that is just silly

Excellent ! Well done. That bungee cord looks a bit frayed !

Love the bit at the beginning where the dude says to you "Don't look down" ! LOLOLOL

Fair play to you

 

[Zede]

going down the equivalent depth underwater i could do, but that - no no no !

so well done

 

[CorNokZ]

I'm well disappointed.. I always imagined you were the girl in your avatar

It's now ruined forever!

very nice jump dude. nice dive, straight down. well done.

what you write is exactly what I felt when I jumped. you have to mentally over come your preservation instinct. I also didn't jump on my first countdown, and imo they do it fast and sudden just to mess you up hehe

If you want bigger, I did the Nevis jump in New Zealand's South Island which is 137 meters iirc, and I have heard there is one in South Africa which is higher, and one in South America which is higher still

 

[Zenith]

Cool one might! You ought to try out skydiving next

 

[Ezteq]

you know what i'd love to do? you ever seen that bloke who flys? he has a special suit with bits joining the arms and legs a bit like a sugerglider and he jumps off things (like the grandcanyon etc) and just flys along for ages.

that would be freekin awesome and (if i had one) i'd give my left nut to do it.

Well your boy can always sacrifice one, ask him if he loves you then make the proposal

 

[Pertan]

I did it when i was around 14, 80 meters to the ground and the guy up on the lift with me pushed me which was good though, don't think i would have jumped if he did not

 

[Dukat]

Woah, respect!

I jumped out of a plane once, but I honestly think I'd not have the guts to do a bungee jump - I've got a hell of a lot of respect for anyone who's done it.

Bloody good job old chap

 

[tierk]

Ok, First Cade, i did the jump in Phuket - Thailand - at the only only place on the island. If i could find a plane here i would go ahead and sky dive out of it but it seems that they dont have any here - classes for sky diving - so i have to make do with Scuba diving - four dives so far and another 4 tomorrow - manged to hit 18 meters so far - officially but 21 on the sly.

Ez are you talking about this?

A mate sent this to me in March this year and yesh i will be giving this a go when i grow some real balls!!Its look unbelievably scarey which i am guessing is the point TBH i thought it was a fake video but now you mention it i am guessing it is real and fuck me this really needs balls.

Thanks all for the love in this thread it is great. I will keep you all posted on pix from the dives, i hope to get these up tomorrow.

That may be so, but they would be Canadian by nationality, which is the point everyone is trying to make.

Fred, British or not I would rather have him (an educated indiviadual who will contribute massively to society) as one of our country men rather than then overgrowing number of pregnant teenage girls or 13 year old fathers who are your type of British!

Fk that, seriously fk that. Poor Guy

 

[tierk]

LOL Lamp -Nice find!!

If you play with fire expect to get burnt at some point.

I think the guy jumped wrong though as you are supposed to just properly dive head first rather then the way he did as i would imagine the force exerted on the harness would be unbelievably high once it starts to kick in. Though having said that it seems that it saved him - jumping wrong the way.

The two days i jumped they tied the harness so tight that it was actually painful, once i got down and you can see it on the video when he zooms in on my face at the end.

I would be curious to know if that was after i did my jump or before.

Would never bungee, unless they use the waist harness as a safety net. Well done you though. Next time make sure you get a waist harness
