Bungee jumping is an adventurous sport in which people jump from higher ground such as a bridge with an elastic rope tied to their ankles to stop them from hitting the ground.

Created for people with ongoing healthcare needs but Description • Bungee jumping is an activity that includes jumping from a tall structure i.e. from a bringe, and be connected from an elastic cord.

On the other hand, if a bungee jumper doesn’t come back up and the cord breaks, that’s never good. Most of the time, if this were to happen, the bungee jumper is either seriously injured or worse.

Riding in submersibles is considered much less dangerous than both horseback riding and driving. 23. Bungee Jumping, 1 in 500,000 24. Hot Air Ballooning, 1 in 500,000 25. Recreational Scuba 2oSWiB3.
