First one from a lower height was a little unnerving. As you stand on the platform, every bone in your body is screaming "Don't do it, don't do it". Hard to jump off. However, once you hit bottom and start bouncing, it was actually pretty cool. <br /><br />Unfortunately, I found out your experience is directly related to the cords. On the second higher jump, they used heavier cords, which felt like they were pulling me off the platform, and which had much less spring. So when I hit bottom I was jerked up high pretty roughly, like a rag doll, and repeated that a few times before stopping bounce. Not so much fun. After that I wasn't too keen on trying it again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5991543948621821033.post-32769158716521767552011-03-28T16:48:50.071-07:002011-03-28T16:48:50.071-07:00A fine pastime for adrenalin junkies.

I don't care how many times I'm told it isn't the fall that kills you, it's the sudden stop at the end, I keep remembering that sudden stop.Sherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00944532662261333590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5991543948621821033.post-10115628900629412092011-03-28T13:39:39.008-07:002011-03-28T13:39:39.008-07:00I work in a bucket with a harness on everyday, I n...I work in a bucket with a harness on everyday, I never once thought of leaving my perfectly safe bucket for the not so safe air.
