BUNGEE JUMPING!?!?!!?

Those of you that have bungee jumped before or generally know information about it, please help me out..

I'm doing a 160ft jump on Saturday and want to know what to expect, i also have a few questions:

-What do you recommend i wear?
-Do they weigh you or do you tell them your weight?
-How will it feel?

Any other advise that you might have would also be sooo grateful ..thanks guys and gals :D<3

  • I've not done one but would love too. I do worry though about having a heart attack half way down and would definately wear 2 pairs of underpants. :smile:

    I have never been bungee jumping but when I went skydiving, they did not weigh me.

    They weigh you there. People can't be trusted to be honest about these things all too often.

    I worse combats and a skinny t when I did my jump. People were there doing it in leggins, jeans, joggers etc. I wouldn't recommend a skirt/dress, but other than that you're pretty safe for attire.

    It felt felt nerve wracking and a bit like trying to kill myself before I jumped. The twang hurt my ankles, but it was fun. It's overrating in my opinion though and I wouldn't bother doing it again unless it was off one of those mental high bridges in NZ or something. Skydiving is much more exciting.

    Parachutes don't have to be measured exactly to accommodate your weight like a bungee cord does.
