Never Refuse Bungee Jumping

In case you weren’t aware, New Zealand is actually home to the original form of bungee jumping. Of course it first began in a much more organic manner with the Vanuatu tribes choosing to tie simple vines around their ankles while jumping off incredibly high structures. Then in the 80s, AJ Hackett decided to create an elastic bungee cord and thus the modern form of bungee jumping was formed. Even if you’re afraid of heights or you’re not exactly the adventurous type, never say no to trying something new like taking a plunge, literally. Who knows, you might just discover that bungee jumping is actually your exact cup of tea.
