THE SWING!

oh god!

"a platform on the edge of a cliff 109m/360ft above the Shotover River. At the platform you are fitted into a seat and chest harness and connected to the jump ropes. This harnessing configuration keeps your arms and legs free throughout the journey and enabling you to safely depart the platform in any position imaginable. Gravity does the rest. "

scary shit...but i was so excited about doing it....i was so up for that i nominated myself to go first...i wanted to be scared so i decided to do it the scarest way....backwards...i was so brave and cocky till looked over the edge....oh god oh god....my legs stopped working and i couldn't physically make them move....the video is on my facebook....so i was standing on the edge...shitting myself....while the man leaned me over the edge and explained that i'd have to do a little jump to push myself of the ledge...was this guy crazy...didnt he know my legs werent working!so the count down began 3.....2....1..... and in my head it all happened very fast...i fell backwards and jumped...fell and screamed alot...but in the video it takes me ages to fall and they had to give me a little push but i loved it....i loved it so much i decided to do it again...the second one i did was called "Gimp boy goes to Hollywood!"it involved hanging upside down over the canyon while they pull the cord and you fall head first down the sharp pointy rocks and then swing across the canyon.excellent...such a rush....
