Bounce da baby! Weeeee!

Not into jumping off a bridge, with a cord tied to your feet, into a gorge full of roaring water?

 

Perhaps you might find the Bungy Trampoline (opened in 2011), more your style.

 

Two sets of bungy cords attached to a harness, in which the jumper is secured, enhance the traditional trampoline experience and provide a ride that defies gravity and serves up a substantial dose of adrenalin.

 

Jumpers can reach heights that are impossible to attain on a trampoline alone, but still remain safe and secure in an adjustable, purpose built harness.

 

You can even experiment with acrobatic movements such as back flips and spread eagles or simply test yourself to jump as high as you possibly can.

 

The Bungy Trampoline is open to anyone who is over the age of two (no kidding) and weighs between 22 lbs (10kg) and 198 lbs (90kg).

 

You can bounce up to four people at a time, each on their own separate trampoline and jumpers can reach up to 26 feet (8m) in height.

 

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.
