Standing on the bridge which is 216mts high (708 ft) at South Africa's Bloukrans Bungee jump was one of the most terrifying and thrilling things I have ever done. This is not for people who have a weak heart or someone who is scared of heights. Bungee jump gives the ultimate adrenaline rush to people who are brave enough to take the plunge.
Blokran's Bridge bungee is the world's highest commercial bridge. It is situated at Blokran's bridge on the national highway at the border between eastern cape and western cape in the area of the garden route. Six of us had been to South Africa on a trip a few months back and decided not to miss this adventure. As soon as we reached the place, we were asked to sign an indemnity form and booked the slot by paying R950. We were also told that we won't get money back if we step back with the fear of jumping. On an average out of every ten people that go up, two don't jump. So, our chance of jumping was thus 80%. There was a caged bridge we walked across to reach the jumping point. Crossing the bridge itself was a big task for us as it was very scary and adventurous. Once we crossed the bridge and reached the actual jumping place, everything changed. House music, great vibes, and chilled atmosphere. The Face Adrenalin team were really very friendly, energetic and helpful. They continuously tried to make us comfortable with the environment.
