New Zealand: Taupo - I jumped from 47 meters and still alive.

As i promised, i will update bout my bungy jumping trip in Taupo, New Zealand. But don't dream i will post the video out, although i do have it, because i damn ugly and so embarrassed to post here, i was like shouting all the way until my feet step on the ground.

Alright only Williem and I in the house wanted to go to this jump, and we joined another 3 girlfriends of Will, and there i know another 3 friends from Malaysia and Taiwan.

We departed from Te Puke in the early morning, because from Te Puke to Taupo will take like 3 hours driving distance, and we wanna go to the famous falls in Taupo after the jump.

So all above is bullshit, i have no idea what i'm talkin bout this, maybe i sit in front of the heater and i feel a little dizzy by blowing by the hot air, but don't dream i will move myself from the heater, i rather hot but not cold, if you guys know that the temperature outside is only 3'c.

Alright another paragraph of bullshit. Photos are coming now.

Here is the place!

This high!

The bill

If you guys are wondering how much it cost, we got the combo deal in i-site, which is $123 per person, including a free DVD, add another $55 for the series of photos when you're jumping. If you purchase on the spot, it is $123 too, but not including a DVD, you want a DVD you have to add extra $ 45.

So total is $178, people say this is expensive but for me this is reasonable and i ready to pay and do this when i had decided to come to NZ.

And yea, Taupo Bungy is the first commercial bungy jumping in the world, the first bungy jumping point in this world is in NZ, but that is in Queenstown which is in South island. And the price will more expensive, but the height is higher as well. For Taupo, its only 47 metres, about 10++ floors high.

Before jump, they will weight you to categories which group you're in, and write your weigth hell big ON YOUR HAND, so lady, if you don't wanna let others to know your weight, wear long sleeve. :D

Later, they will let you sign an agreement, that they're not taking any responsible if some accident happen.

That day was cold, i don't know the temperature but it was cold, and strong wind chill, but 4 of us (Yuen Ting doesn't want to jump, she is just photographer) still took off our thick jacket and ready for the jump!

Waiting to jump

Nervous but still have to smile!!!!!

Been pushed!

and i fall

and fall..

And i shout!

ARGGGGGGGGGGG

Here i go

Spot me

Where am i?

How high?

And i fail to touch the water

rescue me

Got me on the boat

I just have to share with you guys that how shame i am! I was so excited when i was lining up for the jump, shout everytime i see someone jumping down and discussing with my mates that what i gonna pose when i jumped down.

But, when it was my turn and i sitting to wait for my jump, i was so nervous, by the time the staff told me "Chin up, hand up, one two three and bungee ok?" I said ok and i step forward, when he said one two three bungee and i still standing on the same place and i just arrrgggg! I lost my guts!

Then i just tell the guys behind me that "Can you just push me down?!"

And he said "No problem, i see you later"

And he pushed, all happened in 5 seconds! AND I WASN"T READY YET!

The worst is, all under my dvd record :'(

This is the biggest reason i don't wanna post out, so much people laughing behind me :(

But i tell you what, this is a great experience, you should do at least once in your life! And this is worth what you paid.

I got the great experience in bungy jump, when is your turn my readers? =)
