A lawsuit just waiting to happen.

Now I’m thinking of the song Bungee Jumping People Die by Antiproduct

Must be half price day. The second half, the half without the cord is free.

The business is now going to be named, Hit The Ground Bungee

Cloudchaser Sakonige got me curious, so I looked up the video of “Bungee Jumping People Die”. Kind of interesting but if you don’t like punk, you won’t like the band or this video.

I’ve seen enough videos of bungee jumpers dying (TV news) to inhibit me from ever bungee jumping!!

It almost appears that the other end of the bungee cord is attached to the right leg of the guy trying to tie the knot. What an outcome that would be.

It’s never good to hear ‘whoopsie’!

This is doomed from the start. Any one who bungee jumps from that platform is also going to smack into the pillar. Several times if the cord doesn’t break.

I hope that’s a good helmet!

This is doomed. Bungee cord knots tend to slip.

Personally, I prefer the CTH bungee strip in which someone thinks a yard is only two feet.

Just tie a square knot in it and you’ll be good to go . . .Don’t forget to give the man a free T – shirt after he does it !

It’s a slip knot for his soon-to-be ex.

Soon to become “Groundview.”
