Ok so I have just booked my bungy and will be jumping in less then 2 hours. Absolutely petrified - don't know why I have done it, I hate heights. Guess I am a sucker for a bargain; for less then 40quid I couldn't say no. It is not an irrational fear, it is not as though I think that I am going to end up dead or maimed, it is quite simply having enough courage to take that leap of faith and more importantly going head first. I guess you just have to trust that these people know what they are doing. Others have compared it to putting your life in the hands of doctors everytime you go into the hospital. I'm not convinced any of these characters have done 5 years at 'bungy school'.
Wish me luck and I'll be sure to get an post-jump analysis up on here :)

Hello...Just found your blog (looking for Kanchanburi entries) and read about your jump! Fantastic! If you make it to South Island, jump the bridge and also do the Nevis (480 meters, I believe). Best jumps I've ever done. If you enjoy the Taupo jump, you'll really enjoy these!
Haha, you sound like a bungy veteran! One was quite enough for me...I´m not great with heights! Kanchanburi was my favourite place in Thailand - great place to relax after the hustle and bustle of Bangkok.
