Dennis Bungee Jump @ Bhote Koshi River in Kathmandu, Nepal

Bungee jumping or swinging over the Bhote Koshi River has been described as the ultimate Adrenaline Rush! The valley is narrow with steep hillsides towering over 2,000 meters (6,600 ft) from the river. Nepal's first bungee jumping site is situated at the Last Resort, 160 meters (520 ft) above a gorge with Nepal's wildest river raging below. It is 12 kilometers (7.5 mi) from the Nepal-Tibet border. Bungee jumping at the Last Resort is the 3rd highest in the world. However the swing is the worlds longest at 300meters with 7.5 seconds of free fall and reaching a speed of 150km/hr. When it opened in 1999, the Last Resort was the 2nd highest suspension footbridges in the world. It's Swiss designed, especially for bungee jumping with a 4x safety factor, the bridge will hold 4.5 tonnes. Over 6,000 meters (20,000 ft) of steel wire was used to build the longest suspension bridge in Nepal.

Wow, just figured this out. Maybe that's why I'm crazy...... if I can't figure this out! Anyway, biggest thrill i've had! Although, I'm still hoping for Hally Berry! Price was 80 Euro for 2 jumps, lunch and transport to the Last Resort. Will now be posting my hand gliding flight from Rio....Stay tuned.
