Highwire Bungy

It was one of those random decisions that set your teeth on edge and your hair on end...

So one of the WWOOFers in Lumsden wanted to do a Bungy, but wasn't sure if he wanted to do it alone, so he asked me to come with him. Me, having a big mouth, told him Bungys aren't as scary and I could easily do a second one.

The Bungy he wanted to do though happened to be the Highwire Bungy, the highest in the Australasian region.

134 meters, jumping out of a box strung up on a wire running from one side of the Nevis Gorge to the other. It is as crazy as it sounds.


And in case anyone was wondering, having done a Bungy Jump does not, in any way, make the second one less terrifying.

(Video music had to be changed due to copyright.)

  3. Bingo! Now I believe: You are in fact part of my family!
    Nebendemweg: What's more crazy: Bungee-jump or free-drop with 9,78 m/s² ?
