Bungee Jumping Insurance
The concept of bungee jumping is a simple one. Dive headfirst from a high point and plummet to the ground only to be saved by some incredible elastic rope tied to the jumper’s ankles. Bungee jumping was made commercially famous by a New Zealander named AJ Hackett who broke many jumping records in the 1980s and remains one of the largest operators of jump sites around the world.

More about bungee jumping
Bungee jumping sits amongst the higher risk sports within group 3 simple because of the potential for serious injuries. If something was to go wrong with the elastic cord, serious injury or death is the likely outcome. However many jumping clubs and sites around the world have extremely good safety records having introduced failsafe mechanisms to protect jumpers. Despite this we would strongly advise that, not only should you get adequate insurance but also check on the safety record of the site prior to any bungee jump.
