Bungy jumping in Queenstown, New Zealand has been the highlight of our time in New Zealand. In this vlog you'll see two of Queenstown's most popular bungy jumps, the Nevis Bungy Jump and the Kawarau Bridge Bungy Jump. Both bungy jumps are owned by the AJ Hackett company. They are professionally run, and we felt safe and sound in their hands... sort of. At least as much as you can feel safe while bungee jumping!
We started off our morning in Queenstown with Jordan and Julianne jumping from Kawarau Bridge Bungy Jump. This jump is 43 meters high. It was the first bungy jump to be established in New Zealand. The scenery is absolutely beautiful, and you jump in to the turquoise water of the glacial river below!
Kara and I jumped from the Nevis Bungy Jump later that afternoon. The Nevis Bungy is 3 times taller than the Kawarau Bridge Bungy. For this jump you ride a little metal cart out to a small building that's hanging between two mountains. Then you jump from 134 meters above the ground. This is the tallest bungy jump in New Zealand and the 14th tallest in the world!
If you want to know what it's like to jump from the highest bungy jump in New Zealand check out this VLOG!

OMG... WTF... I WAS SWEATING WATCHING. I've never seen Nate like that in all the videos. He seems so serious, calculating and process-driven. After that jump, I saw genuine joy and excitement!

[@KaraandNate]

+Romer G. Hahaha. He was WAY more nervous than I thought he'd be! Cracked me up!

[@naeherscp]

Look at you! Kara and Nate replied. 5 years? Wow. I honestly love Kara and Nate and I’d die for them to relay to me! ❤️

This is my absolute favorite vlog. You were both adorable and having a blast. Love it. I've watched it like 5 times lol.

[@SeiminlenKuki]

U mean u watched 17 mins 5 times in a row???The craziness is same as the bungee jumping,the only difference is the place.

[@lindsaymoore6691]

@@SeiminlenKuki I have watched it 5 times since they've posted it. Did I say I watched it 5 times in a row? How does it affect you if I did? Your comment is unnecessary.

Hw the hell did you choose ur favorite vlog??

My heart was racing just watching you guys do it!

[@KaraandNate]

+Colleen Crouch Mine too! Every time!

[@razielim09]

I’ve never seen Nate’s eyes so big!! And Kara’s swan dive was a 10/10 whoop whoop 🙌

[@PlanesTrainsEverything]

Kudos to you both. The difference between 'before' and 'after' was hilarious.

[@ain421]

I went skydiving just a few weeks back and it was fantastic. Bungee jumping seems a lot more scarier from your videos omg

[@georgejacob3162]

I've done 2 bungys 2 skydives and 2 wing walks. The 2nd of the two skydives and wing walks were a walk in the park even though my 2nd skydive was 5,000ft higher than my first skydive and my 2nd wing walk included upsidedown manoeuvres. My 2nd bungy was just as scary as my first and they were both done from the same height of 'only' 45 meters. I had to bungy twice because my first one wasn't filmed. So yes bungy is scarier than skydiving. Well it is for me. Most of my extreme exploits can be seen on my KZbin channel.

[@zachkjaer9152]

George Jacob your honestly just annoying all your doing is 1 upping people

[@EricandAmanda]

It's awesome you captured your jumps on film. Surprised everyone did it too!

[@Markevans63]

wow! Fair play to you all! Kara and Nate I don't think I'd be able to do that! I'm shaking just watching it!

[@KaraandNate]

+Mark Evans I still can't believe we did it!

[@Dtestor]

I'm seriously at a loss for words, that looked like an amazing experience! The more I watch your videos, the more I realize I need to live more like you guys!

[@trivedi1990tube]

I have been consuming videos of you guys since last two weeks. Quite obsessed with these vlogs I must admit. I have not been able to comment on each of the videos but this video made me comment my feelings while watching you guys. It was superbly captured, so natural and it made me nostalgic when I did flying fix two years ago in Hrishikesh, India. It was the guys from New Zealand who sets up something like this in India. You guys rock. I swear I 'll watch each and every video of yours before I die :D Keep Recoding. Love from India
