Indoor Bungee

Matt

I did an indoor bungee jump this morning, courtesy of the wife for Christmas

Bungee - Picture the scene: You are enveloped in semi darkness, spot lights whirl around Magna’s breathtaking structure, the Face of Steel, standing at 150 feet; you start the 143 steep climb to the jump zone music pumps out of a wall of speakers, dry ice fills the air, and 7 huge video screens project images of what you are about to experience …and that’s before you’ve even taken the plunge!

The Abyss @ Magna launched on November 9th 2005 is the UK’s scariest adrenalin experience, the WORLD’s highest indoor Bungee Jump and the only permanent Bungee Jumping facility in the UK

nice one matt ,and yes it is an adrenaline rush i done a tandem one in cyprus with my mate straight into the mediterranian sea,bloody loved it

Matt

Wasn't nice being delayed for the jump though. We spent over an hour sat in the rafters waiting, and the temperature inside was a nice minus 5!

Daz

looks good that Matt, not sure i would have the bottle.

Matt

Booked another one! This one is 300foot and outdoors in Manchester! Just need to arrange a date to do it

Sjdickso

Don't think I would have the bottle to do anything like that.

On this one you get approximately 4 seconds of free fall. The hardest part about the last one was the time spent waiting sat so high up in the freezing cold. Hopefully this one will be a lot quicker turn around on actually doing the jump.
