Just got back from New Zealand (bungy jump pics)

Thought I would post these, definetely something to try if you ever go over to NZ.

134m, 8.5 seconds of freefall, 3rd largest in the world (so they say?). Called the "Nevis Highwire" BTW and the bungy pod in the middle of the canyon has a glass bottom, very cool.

i agree, i'm trying to figure out which drug and i'm thinking adderall or cocaine, maybe acid or shrooms if the trip was going super awesome and i've jumped before.

the most extreme thing i've done is this:

http://wildadventures.net/rides_attractions_shows/2007/04/geronimo_skycoaster.php

One to three riders are placed in full body flight suits, hoisted approximately 180 feet from the ground and when the ripcord is released, hang on. It gives them the sensation of hang gliding and skydiving at speeds accelerating to 60-80 mph. The launch cable is attached to a 180 foot �A� frame tower and when riders begin their decent they experience an exciting �ground rush� as they swiftly pass over the soil at the lowest part of the ride. In a pendulum motion, flyers will swing back and forth approximately 10 times before coming to rest on the platform. Most riders describe the experience as a sensation of �body flight� and the ultimate �rush�. Geronimo is open selected park days and hours.

Speed: 60 to 80 mph.
Duration: 10 swings
Ride Height: 190 feet

They have one of those in Daytona Beach FL, I rode that one which isn't as big but its at least 100ft. That was one of the funnest things I've ever done. Especially since you go out over the ocean.
