Today I'm suppose to be doing the bungy... I'm absolutley pooing myself, Plus I can't really pull out now as I'll look like a chicken! We get to Taupo bungy and my heart it racing and for some reason I can't feel the ends of my fingers and have pins and needles in my hands. I swear I'm going to have a heart attack if I jump off. So we queue on the ledge which keeps boncing up and down and is not helping with my nerves. I keep thinking I really don't want to die today, then it's my turn. The guy straps my ankles together while i'm hyperventilating and takes me to the edge of the ledge, where I hold on to the side for dear life... **** what the hell am I doing! The guy makes me put my arms out to the side and says count to 3 then jump. YEAH RIGHT! So i start counting. 1.... then I realise i'm not on the platform anymore. The w***er pushed me off! The freefall lasts about 2 seconds then the bungy pulls you back up again and again. I thought afterwards, it that it! Although you will never ever see me do that again! The minibus then pickes us up to jump out of the plane. I'm so excited. We get into our 'sexy' pilot outfits and get into the plane. It takes about 20mins to reach 15,000ft then we jump. We were told to put our bodies into a banana shape, so I 'try' and do that. It is so hard to breathe while free falling all my pictures look like a suffocating banana! After about a minute we fall through the clouds and the guy opens the parachute. It was amazing you can see across the lake. It was all over so quickly. So in one day I was pushed off a 46m ledge attached to a rubber band and jumped out of a plane at 15,000ft... no one can call me a wimp again... LOL!
