Aldi Aldi is selling a Christmas bauble cake and shoppers are going crazy for it The Belgian chocolate cake even has a hand-decorated village inside the giant festive bauble on top. This particular jump is very near Canada's capital city, Ottawa. This means it is quite easy to access, but the easiest method of transport is by car. I arrived, gave my name to the lady at reception, and then had the unpleasant experience of signing the disclaimer. At that point, I questioned myself. I was essentially signing my life away, and saying that if I died, it was not their fault.
I signed anyhow, and a little while later, I was allowed to walk up the path to the scaffolding, where the jump takes place. I should say that this jump site is rather beautiful, in a rustic way.
You are surrounded by white and grey cliffs amongst lots of trees, and are jumping towards blue water which you can hit when you jump, if you wish. The day I was there was a sunny and warm day, which always helps. After climbing the steps up the scaffolding, the process begins. We were a group of approximately 10 people in the same jump group, and our jump order was assigned by height heaviest to lightest , putting me towards the end as men often weigh more than women. I watched several nervous men tentatively fall off the jump platform before my turn arrived.
For this reason, I would say bungee jumping is not for the faint-hearted! Then, our scheduler gave me a waist harness and strapped me into a harness with 2 holes for my feet. We walked to the platform area, where 2 more seasoned bungee jump instructors were waiting to assist me. After double-checking all of my harnesses and safety equipment, I was attached to the jump rope and allowed to walk to the platform edge. Personally I have no fear of heights.
Bungee jumping and skydiving? So passé. All the cool travelers have moved on to these crazy adventure activities that you've probably never. Holidays don't have to be all about lazing around on the beach. Whether it's doing the world's highest tandem skydive in Orlando, climbing the world's most remote mountain in Mongolia, or attempting the world's highest bungee jump in China, there's a host of holiday activities.
Birds terrify me, but heights are pretty cool with me. After my countdown from 5, I spread my arms into a swan dive and leapt from the platform. The DVD later showed my entire jump to be rather more graceful than I had imagined it to be. The rebounds were almost as good as the first jump, but then the blood did indeed rush to my head. One of my shoes also felt like it might fall off under the strain of holding my body weight until I was lowered into the waiting boat.
To summarise, it was a great experience and a wonderful birthday present to myself, but not as much fun as skydiving. But if, like me, you enjoy the feeling of adrenaline, I'd certainly recommend it. I wouldn't dare to do a bungee jump. I'm a person that doesn't love adrenaline that much and I simply don't have the courage needed.
I actually am afraid of doing something new and something as dangerous as this. I don't think I will ever have the power to convince myself to do that. Yet, I prefer a bit different kind of extreme. I think, real extreme is something, what noone ever did, like, let's say I think it's cool XD. I I'll go on and do it someday!

I really enjoy the feeling of adrenaline. In my country, Montenegro, there is one place where organized bungee jumping. I watched it a few times on tv. I want to try it one day. I have already seen the video, and I have decided not to try ever any extreme sport. I do not wanna die so soon.
Would you dare to try these? Ten extreme holidays
I've wanted to take part in any extreme sport since I knew about them. It is cool and interesting. But it must be safety. I'm not such person, who wanted to have a risk of his life to have adrenaline. It is foolishly at least But I'm pleased to throw myself out of a plane.
I like extreme sports! I have tried once rafting. It was amazing and unforgettable I want to try more extreme sports such as bungee jump or Deep Water Soloing. I want to jump from a plane with a parachute,I have no fear of heights.
