Not wanting to be outdone by Will Smith, Joe decided he would go bungee jumping as well. Not quite over the Grand Canyon but still pretty high for Joe ;-)
UIP Norway and Fun Factory set up a 20-meter high catapult jump outside the East Railway Hall in connection with the new Spiderman film "The Amazing Spiderman 2". The jump is free and has an age limit of 8 years. By a bungee jump you get stuck in a harness down on the ground, and then be shot 20 meters up in the weather. Exactly how fast it goes is not known, but project manager Stian Stark Husby promises a real punch in the stomach.
- You get the Facebook page. the roller coaster effect, says Stark Husby, who himself will be one of the first to try the jump.
The bungee jump is inspired by the Spiderman movie and is ready for anyone who has to dry from April 17-20. A photographer will be present and perpetuate each jump and the images will be uploaded to UIPs
if you already use ball bungees to transport your snoot and brolly/umbrella bundled to your light stand then you need nothing else.
when you setup, use one of the ball bungees to hold the hotshoe strobe to the swivel. use the second ball bungee to hang a weight low on the stand for balance in wind.
pass the ball bungee through the large side hole on the top part of the Impact brand plastic swivel mount.
the screw knob helps support the middle of the strobe so it doesn't tip as much.
the top of the Impact brand plastic swivel is a flat square. pressure from the bungee pushes the flat side of this Nikon SB-28/DX or other strobes onto the top of the swivel.
to use the least amount of force to stretch the bungee, lift out and turn the handle of the swivel to parallel the bungee cord.
the heavy metal swivels from Bogen/Manfrotto and Photoflex do not have side holes.
yet another reason to buy the less expensive plastic Impact brand swivel mounts that also weigh less.
