23/12/09 - Fun Times

At some points in life you find yourself wondering, "How on Earth did I get myself in this position?" Standing at the edge of a 134m drop was one such point. Of course, for me this thought is usually followed by, "Meh, what the hell" and then doing something many people would consider inadvisable.

I decided a swan dive would be the most suitable jumping style of my first ever bungee and off of New Zealand's highest available.

Only looking from the side can you appreciate how absurdly high this was...

After doing the bungee jump I clearly had to give the canyon swing a go. This is advertised as the worlds highest swing.

The guy doing the dropping clearly has too much fun. I was in mid sentence talking to Beau when he released me. The video is hilarious. I discovered just how ingrained the f word is in my psyche here as that is all I got out before plummeting 124m.

As I said in the title: fun times.
