Can Fat People Bungy Jump? Well I did!

Always one to create a stir...I just wanted to let everyone know that I am 239lbs and I jumped head first off a bridge with only a tiny elastic rope around my ankles...It was the most terrifying thing I have ever done in my whole life...Standing on the edge of the bridge...looking down at the swirling water way, way, way below...and thinking I am going to jump down into that. Here is a Picture:

I have more pictures on my blog...but I guess I just wanted to brag...If I can do that...then we can do anything...losing the remaining 63lbs that I have to loose should be a breeze for me after that. We shall see.

You are so BRAVE. I have always wanted to but didn't go thru with it.

I am so impressed. I am so envious.

What will you do next? I did white Water raft and it was fun and very dangerous. I love water but those rocks can break bones if you hit them right/wrong.

Bungie jumping scares me. One of my goals, when I lose weight, is to go sky diving. For some reason, that's a lot less scary for me than bungie jumping.

The only reason I wouldnt have been able to bungy jump is becuase I was incapable of telling anyone what I weighed without knocking off a couple of kilos, lol.

HaHa...you have to stand on a scale TWICE in front of everyone...I think I conquered two terrifying fears...lol

I think the scariest part for me than would be stepping on the scale in front of people:eek:. I have always wanted to go sky diving, white water rafting, and bunge jumping. I think doing all that will be my big reward!
