Bungy JumpingBungy Jump at Queenstown

New Zealand is the home of bungy. Give yourself a massive dose of adrenalin, and throw yourself off a bridge or platform high above the ground with legs attached to a rubber band. The biggest challenge is to overcome your fear and do it! Anybody can give it a go, strap a rubber band to your ankles and take a daredevil leap from a platform and experience the incredible ground rush. This has long been a traditional and cultural activity in Vanuatu, however, Kiwis have taken it to a new extreme. In the 1980's, AJ Hackett started the world's first commercial bungy operation in Queenstown. This involved a 43 metre jump from the Kawarau Bridge. The latest bungy sensation is the Nevis Highwire bungy at 134 metres high, and suspended over a canyon.
