Bungee jump horror

A woman has plunged into crocodile-infested waters after her bungee rope snapped.

I don't think I'll be trying that in a hurry now!

Bungee jumping has never appealed to me - and never will now!

That girl was very lucky indeed!

Just heard about this on the news...what a lucky girl she was. I never would dream about doing a bungee jump-don't like heights, never mind jumping off them!!!

I don't think your sister would still want to do a bungee jump after seeing that, Marian!

Did you see the way the girl was pushed off at the start? I think I would have passed out!

Good grief! Why do people do things like that? A dare, a wish, an adrenalin rush? Barmy. Glad she was okay though.

I've sent her the link so hopefully it will put her off!! Her children were supposedly organising one as a present for her 50th a couple of years ago but to date its never materialised

Re: Bungee jump horror

I am glad that did not happen with my bungee jump, she aint half lucky.

I bet she never does another one.
