Gearing up!

Statistics have proven that, physically, no harm will come to the jumper, short of a heart attack or a stroke from a first time fright.

 

The system is actually very gentle on a person who jumps.

 

You can be a big strong guy or a little wee girl or a paraplegic or a very old person - it's no problem to jump all these people because the thing about Bungy is that it's from the shoulders up, not the shoulders down.

 

The thrill is inside your head. 99% of people who have tried it say it's the best thing they have ever done.

 

NOTE: I have uploaded this as a whole set (37 pics) all at once, for obvious reasons. Run this in slideshow after reading the background comments on the SET page.
