Jump nundder!!!! Lets go

The Verzasca Dam is a 220 meter (722 feet) high arch hydroelectric dam in the Valle Verzasca (Verzasca Valley), Canton of Ticino, southern Italian speaking part of Switzerland.

The dam was constructed between 1960 and 1965 and forms the Vogorno lake (Lago di Vogorno), an artificial reservoir. Made of concrete, the structure dams the Verzasca River and retains over 100 million cubic meters of water.

The dam gained a certain popularity as it was part of the opening scene of the 1995 James Bond film Goldeneye, in which James Bond jumps off the top of the dam in an attempt to gain access to the heavily guarded Russian chemical weapons factory below, reaching a speed of up to 120mph during his eight-second freefall down the studded concrete wall. Today, this is the biggest bungee jump in the world.
