Would you ever do a bungy jump?

I would not ever choose to do a bungy jump because it would be frightening for me. It is when a person has a harness on and a rope around his or her foot. The person jumps off a cliff or somewhere different and then bounces around. The person is upside down. When I was in Australia two girls from the youth hostel went bungy jumping. They asked if I wished to go and I said no thank you. Would you ever do a bungy jump? If yes why? If no why?

Dear max, Ofcourse yes.i know it would like pissing in your pants but its a one time life experience. there is nothing going to happen.there is a level of emergency and security and many safety measures are taken. it gives you an adrenaline rush that nothing would give you.you will love to feel it.believe me its pretty awesome. You recommend you to try it atleast once in a lifetime and that to in the young age as at that age one is more adventurous and one loves to take on challenges. So my take would be definately doing. And i guess even you would like it.

Nope Nope Nope! I may be a scaredy cat, but no way would I go bungee jumping. I never even heard of it off of a cliff, but mainly out of a plane, along with sky diving. 1) fear; don't have the guts 2) no interest or longing to do 3) safety: risks of attachments AND phiscially taking blow and could injure

No way, no how. I'm afraid of heights and I'm terrified of drops.

I prefer not to do it, it can make my stomach feels like round and round. It gets me dizzy.

No bungy jumps for me! That entails two of the things that I fear the most. Height and control. I may get over the height after a few tries climbing, or after a few times looking at how deep wherever the jump is; but I think I would never ever get to let go. And just loose control while falling. Or bouncing back.

No I wouldn't - quite apart from the fact that i simply wouldn't fancy trying, I dont think my body could cope with it! I would love to go abseiling and try a zip wire but I'd have to get medical clearance on those too... and i know they wouldn't give me that for another month or two at least

I would like to try bungy jump because it will be an exciting experience for me. I like trying things that other people think that it will be frightening. Why not try? just to see if you really can, don't limit your self.It will make you a stronger person afterwards.

yes i think i definitely will although may be a bit apprenesive at 1st but think i will just take the leap come what may and get an adrenaline rush which is a sensational feeling,have tried extreme roller costers ,remebering the 1st ride was so scary bt u kept wanting to return for more of that exhilirating feel,i think bungee jumping will surely be 2 3 x more exhilirating ,

AS far as I am concerned, I think I will not have a bungy ,which can be a very dangerous challenge to me. I have just try once, But that time I get so frightened by the bungy. So I decide that I will not try it again.

No. I would never do a bungy jump. It's always possible that the cord could snap.

if given a chance why not. it is not everyday i'm given that kind of opportunity to experience something new. but here's the catch, i won't do it alone. i would prefer to do it with someone that i really trust. that i can say to myself that i can jump with this person and be upside down with him/her even for a while.

No, I don't think so! It's way too dangerous and there's no telling what could happen! Kathy.

Hi Max, I've seen some young boys and girls do this in my country, and as I saw this I was telling myself if those kids were mine there's no way I'm allowing them to try it, it's so risky and even with the harness, I still think it spells danger. So me? No, I'm not gonna do bungy jumping.

I have always wanted to try bungee jumping! Two or three years ago, I'm not sure now, I went to a place where it was said that you could do bungee jumping, but then I found that it was very different, and the place wasn't high at all, so I felt dissapointed and didn't try it. I want to try the real thing at least once, as sounds really exciting
