First of all let’s begin with important points to remember while Bungee Jumping
01. For company, get a person who is trained and a professional to avoid any mistakes and be on the safer side.
02. Ask any question that you want to ask, it is better if you get all your doubts cleared and in the process get to see how much the person knows.
03. All the equipment should be given by the person taking you for the Bungee jumping. Make sure the harness and strong and is soft by the ankles so your ankles don’t hurt. Also make sure that the rope is being tied to a sturdy place. Do not go with the person who has a little old equipment just because it is a little cheaper. A life is much more precious than a few hundreds.
04. The place where you go for the Bungee jumping should be clear of rocks and trees plus it should be really high so you don’t hurt yourself
05. Lastly if you suffer from any heart or breathing problems please do not attempt Bungee Jumping.
06. Oops sorry forgot to mention a small detail. You need to be at least 12 years old and your weight must be at least 40 kgs.
