It
was my first bungy jump that too on the last day of the year.As its
preplanned,i had already booked my time-slot(thank god as it was
crowded on tat day)12-1pm.We first had an overview of the bridge
where am gng to jump....really it was scary..for a moment I was
thinking whether to go ahead,but still somehow got spirit as its a
lifetime experience. We reached the venue @11:30..made all the
procedures n payments for the jump n video footage. To my surprise I
was the last person in tat timeslot, we
all were given instructions like how to jump keeping ur hands
horizontal wise and not to look down while jumping (as it will
increase the fear). Moreover i was empty stomach as i should not have any trouble while jumping so i was starving.On tat day alone nearly 200 jumps were done...cool isn't?
We
all started marching towards the bridge.Our group covers 15 ppl with
equal strength of men n women...off course we all were excited and
fearful. So the countdown started...u can see each person jumping
live and also on the TV over there.Some were so brave did so quickly
and one girl jumped standing facing us(i guess its not her first time,u
cant try these stunts in the first time itself).One guy was bit heavy(i
meant his wt)..,he really looked very scary,was praying God as if he
is going to end his life..ha ha hopefully he finished his turn. You
will always have a tendency to look around you and see their
expressions ,how they react....I should say about this lady,she was
bit cool till her turn..when they called out her name,she started
shivering...her jaws are just dancing(like she's too cold),but
somehow managed to look cool..At the edge,she was just
dancing shakira's hip shake for the song, to come out of fear and did
her bungy.
Finally
its my turn now,enjoyed seeing everyone when they did..but when they
called my name..my heart started beating lub tub...they started to
tie rope in my legs..came near the edge..Crew fellows where shouting
5,4,3,2,1 BUNGY.................i jumped and was hanging down
upside down still bouncing....yes my world is upside down now and
only thing pulling my life is my rope in my leg..and I didnt feel it
was tight like about to come out of my toes. My mind was
blank,i was just enjoying the nature,suddenly a crew person came and he lifted me and landed me up safely.
Wow I
made it..it was a wonderful experience in my life and I wish to share
this with the world.......u can post ur comments if u really enjoyed
reading this or had an similar experience.
