Last week a bunch of us from the bus booked to go on "The Nevis", a 134m bungy jump just outside of town in an area that more closely resembled Afghanistan than NZ. They say go big or go home so I opted in on the highest jump in NZ. The whole process took about 4 hours while the 8.5 second freefall into the valley floor almost gave me a heart attack. On the brightside I got a t-shirt and certificate (which will surely hang next to my degree) to prove I did it.
This is at the first ever bungy jump site (not the nevis). It's a wimpy 43m, I saw a bunch of rovers doing it for sectional.

Here I am, about to die.
This is THE NEVIS in all it's glory. This is actually my friend Julie jumping.
