Idiot Survives Thousand Foot Bungy


Las Vegas may be temporarily sans bungy, but I don't care! There was a one time chance to bungy jump at Royal Gorge Bridge in Colorado. Some bungy jumps are 100 feet or so. In Las Vegas, the bungy tower was 170 feet above the ground. AJ Hackett has its highest jump in New Zealand, at a towering 440 feet. The Bloukrans River Bridge in South Africa is 710 feet above the ground. Well, that's nothing. The Royal Gorge Bridge is 1,050 feet above the ground.

This was the chance of a life time, as it were - and I did it! Click here for the details, or Click here for a really grainy image of the jump.
