Ever since I saw the first episode of the seconded series of Jack Osborne adrenaline junkie I have wanted to go to South Africa. Why? I hear you cry (lol). Well I want to go bungy jumping. I want to go to South Africa to bungy jump off of Bloukrans bridge, it host's the highest commercial bungy jump in the world.

At 14 I did a small bungy jump in a pub car park and I really enjoyed it, the feeling just jumping off waiting for gravity to take its effect. But it was nothing compared to the Bloukrans bridge bungy jump and I really want to go do it, it would be such an adrenaline rush. Problem is actually going to South Africa.. I suppose I could persuade my mum to take me but then as soon as I had done it the rest of the time I'd be bored out of my skull, I'd prefer to go with my mate's but I know most of them wouldn’t even do it let alone go there just for that. So yeah I could always do it later on in life, it's just I want to do it now..


Anyway here's a video of the jump;

Thats a pretty crazy jump, I'd love to do that, but I'm kinda afraid of heights.

I'm afraid of heights, I suppose that would help conquer it ^_^

Well anyway, good luck to you if you do ;)

Yeah it's on my ambishion's list including sky diving.. I did somit like ski diving but know where near as high somit like 500 feet in the air and I was straped in to some harness by my stomach of w/e and just droped from 500 feet attached to cable's. That was amazing, but still nothing compared to the real thing..

I've done a jump where you don't go head first, Nothing that amazing, Can't remember how high it was exactly but it was still a really good experiance
