We called in at the original home of bungy jumping, the Kawarau Bridge over the Shotover River near Queenstown.
When I was last in the area the bus I was on stopped on the nearby road bridge. We watched a young chap standing on the edge, about to jump. Watched him for several minutes in fact, before he chickened out and retreated.
This time there was no anticlimax. The young lady went ahead and did it.
She swung and dangled for a bit, while the retrieval dinghy came out to get her.
Nearly retrieved now.
And probably feeling glad to be alive!
