This video goes against every moral impulse a person has, but oh my god it’s so good. A paraplegic woman wanted to go bungee jumping, so with the help of a group of people tossing her off the bridge and a bungee cord attached to her wheelchair, she went bungee jumping.
Bungee jumping is already the scariest thing in the world, so how does one make it EVEN SCARIER? By going the homemade, DIY route. These guys just tied a few knots, used a few carabiners and then just jumped off a freaking bridge. That’s it. Watch it, you’ll be stunned at how flimsy the entire set up looks.
This video shows 22-year-old Australian tourist Erin Langworthy bungee jumping from the Victoria Falls Bridge, 111m over the Zambesi River. It’s just a normal tourist video… until the cord breaks and she falls into the crocodile-infested waters.

At the risk of sounding like an old woman, I really despair about the youth of today. Sledding off the top of a building, attached to a bungee cord? These Ruskis have a death wish.
