Emma took Joe to Xcape in Castleford for his birthday, they have a bungee jump there, a guy was lined up to do it, count down 3-2-1 Go, the guy sat down, suddenly chicken noises started playing.

Wouldn't do a bungee jump for anything.
Be interested to know injury stats.

Not for me and I’ll do lots of strange stuff, or at least I would do. I believe detached retinas are a possibility.

Yep a mate detached a retina on a jump so after seeing that i didnt bother having a go

Apparently there can be a few problems for larger folk as at the end of the jump all internal organs are still going down while your outer casing is beginning to go up, i have heard of a twisted intestine due to this but cant confirm if its true

My dad was in the Parachute Regiment! But always said why do we have to jump out of a perfectly sound aeroplane!:rolleyes: But when he and my mum went on holiday to Malta the first thing he did was ask the air hostess where the parachutes where!:)
