Bungee was born in Pentecost
Islands in the South
Pacific as a manhood test and a tradition where young natives used
ivies
as cords and jumped from 30 meter high, specially constructed bamboo
towers.
Today, high technology bungee cords have taken the place of ivies and
Bungee is not a test of manhood any more. The activities that contain
high dosage of adrenaline is something you can reach out in everyday
life when you feel the need to make your body chemicals go crazy.
Regarding the characteristics of the cords jumps can be done to the
water, airbags or ground. Cranes and specially constructed steel
towers
are used for these jumps.
You can have a test of Bungee jumping from the Bridge of Bhote Koshi
River in Nepal.
