Bungee Jumping
Posted Jan 12th 2007, 5:46pm by Daniel Collett in Sport of the Day
Would you jump? Could you jump? Have you jumped?
Bungee jumping (or bungy jumping) is an activity in which a person jumps off from a high place (generally of several hundred meters/feet) with one end of an elastic cord attached to his/her body or ankles and the other end tied to the jumping-off point. When the person jumps, the cord will stretch to take up the energy of the fall, then the jumper will fly upwards as the cord snaps back. The jumper oscillates up and down until the initial energy of the jump is dissipated.

Is it you? Upload you photos and let us know. In the pursuit of complete fairness you can be male or female. Which is slightly different to Nuts approach - where guess what, only females can enter.

This is another good sport to highlight. It's kind of limited, though. I guess you can get creative and graceful, but the main point is the adrenalin rush. You know it is a serious sport when they video-tape you confirming that you have read and understand the risks you are undertaking....
