Bungee Jumping - Taupo, New Zealand (Taupo Bungy)

Taupo Bungy! Bungee jumping was near the top of my bucket list... or Daventure list. I had done skydiving before and loved it but i wanted to do bungee because it's a different kind of rush. It's closer to the ground, and I'm jumping on my own power, unlike a tandem skydive. I was very nervous to do it, but my mental toughness kept me from backing down. I wanted to be submerged in the water when I jumped but I wasn't the right weight to do that. I was within a meter of touching the water, though.
Awesome thing to do to help conquer your fears. I recommend everyone to do it once.
Taupo is a really nice town in the North Island of New Zealand and Taupo Bungy is a great place to bungee because of it's beautiful location and its price compared to those in the south island.

So awesome you have bigger ball then I do. Maybe back in my 20's, yes, but now no way. It is a lot of fun for me just to watch though your video's. Thank you take care my young friend.

[@DaveOnArrival]

silvertopaz72 I hope to do it again soon

The bungee jump swing part looked like fun, I would agree the initial jump would be the hardest part.

[@DaveOnArrival]

I need to try a canyon swing someday. It would feel like an amusement park ride.

[@itsmeamy3420]

@@DaveOnArrival I did the cliff hanger swing, it was so awesome. You have to try it!

[@JUANORQUIO]

Lovely! Cheers for more awesome and incredible Bungee Jumping adventures!

[@bizzybeme]

I will be doing this later this month, so thanks for letting me know what to expect!

[@DaveOnArrival]

Have fun! 🙂

[@bizzybeme]

@@DaveOnArrival any tips for nerves once you're up there?

[@DaveOnArrival]

@@bizzybeme it takes mental strength to do it. You just have to remind yourself that it is safe and try to ignore any negative thoughts. Tell yourself "just do it" and forget everything else.

Oh this one is definitely on our short list, we love these things and you couldn't have chosen a better place it's gorgeous. We have also skydived and I agree this should be quite different, but you had a little push just in case

[@DaveOnArrival]

I certainly loved the beautiful location. I hope you get to bungy soon

[@hayley8528]
