New Zealand’s awesome
landscapes, lush forests, amazing wildlife and pleasant climate make it
a haven for many outdoor activities. The society is diverse, sophisticated,
and multicultural. One advantage of New Zealand is that all of its diverse
physical, cultural, and artistic landscapes are relatively close to each
other.

New Zealanders seem to
be very outdoor activity oriented. And one of the first
things they want to do is find a high place and jump off of it.
Bungy jumping got its start and its name in New Zealand. Even in
downtown Auckland you can jump off the city's landmark Sky Tower as
Patti is doing here. This particular aerial is designed to be
more controlled than a standard bungy jump. |
Bungy jumping got its start in
rural areas, so here's the same experience in that setting. First Patti
and then some other people:

When you're tired
of jumping off of insanely high places, how about some white water
action>>> |
