Just
imagination of jumping down from a bridge 160 meters above a
tropical gorge with the Bhote Kosi, one of Nepal's wildest
rivers raging below is enough to make your heartbeat run faster.
And, it is the thrill of bungy jumping as it there is no fun for
real adventure lover if challenge is not so hard and difficult.
It is located within a reach of 4 hours outside Kathmandu and
just 19 km away from the Tibet Border.
The Bungy bridge happens to be the only privately owned bridge
in Nepal. It has been specially designed for bungy jumping with
a 4x-safety factor and has a loading factor of 41,500 kg or 4.5
tons according to Swiss measurements.
One would have to be totally insane or suicidal twisted to jump
off the remarkable 500-ft (160 m) drop into the Bhote Kosi river
gorge. As the Bungy Master nicknamed Rock advises the jumpers to
ensure that pockets are empty and the girls have no loose
jewelry coming in the way, nervous laughter erupts from the
crowd when he strongly advises against taking intoxicants just
before the jump. Jumper’s weights are recorded before the jump
to use different cords for different categories of weights. The
Green, Red and Black cords are used for the lightest, the
heavier and the heavyweights accordingly. It is a perfect way of
wild adventure.
