This photo is obviously not taken by me, but it is a photo of me, so it sort of counts :) Queenstown, New Zealand is the home of bungee jumping so I figured I should give it a try while I was there. You can see a video of the whole jumping off a ledge experience here.

You’ve got to check out the Nevis the next time your in Aotearoa!
I’ve been here! I did the Nevis and Bridge too. New Zealand was fantastic! Hope you had just as much fun as I did!
That actually looks more dangerous than bungee jumping into the river. Hope you didn’t hit the trees below.
Wow…just wow. I don't know if I'd have the guts to do that. It's too bad the photo wasn't more zoomed in on you, that's an awesome pose.
Is that the “official” venue photography unit? How bad would it be if the person taking the picture messed up and missed it?
Wow amazing picture. Looks so dangerous but I guess that's the thrill. I really like your blog – you've been to so many places! I also have a travel blog on Mexico travel. Check it out if you get a chance http://www.mypueblobonito.com

nice pic. dont dare to try…
I would never do that, first time I went on a roller coaster (and keep in mind I was about 17 my first time) my heart nearly exploded. So I stay away from godawful free falling.
Now THAT I must do
What if the ledge fell apart? YIPES!
