She wasn't attached by her ankles, it was a harness around the trunk of her body - that made me feel a little happier!! _________________ ~Sheena~

| Irina thank you so much for your stories and raports  it's great to read them. You were jumping off a bridge but what was below it? A river? Something else? I'm just curious what views you had  and the cute-hugging-guy story was so... cute  |

Aaaah....a "safer" approach, LOL. Did she jump feet first and, if so, did her legs get longer afterwards? LOL
When bungee jumping first became all the rage, the only way it was done was by encasing the persons ankles in a special harness which was attached to the bungee cord device, and you jumped head-first off the bridge. Now, for that one had to be completely insane to do it. I'm glad they have modified the proccess, but that's not saying I'd pay any amount of money to try it, lol. I would think, though, that there would still be a hell of a jolt to one's brain, what with all that bouncing up and down on the bungee chord.

| Irina, you're my hero! I wish I found my inner courage to try bungee jumping as well (maybe someday?). _________________ ~ Malgosia~
