Extreme Green Sports: Bungee Jumping with Vines

July 31, 2008 · Print This Article

If you thought normal bungee jumping with harnesses and ropes that have been extensively safety-tested is scary, check this out: tribe members (including children as young as 7 years old) jumping from wooden structures using nothing but jungle vines. Oh yeah, and there’s no net of any kind. The jumpers often graze the ground below. The slightest error could cripple or kill them.

I think I’ll stay over here on the ground, thank you.
