(12,132 posts)every last one of them.
Now, I have never been bungee jumping but I think I might like to try that once before I shuffle off.

(19,459 posts)Not the moth part (although that characterization cracks me up) but something about watching them line up and leap off one at a time, with those go-pro's on their helmets, really looked like some weird cult thing.

(86,647 posts)that looks like so much fun! I'd love to try it but I'd probably smack into a rock wall ten seconds in or have a heart attack from the rush of the jump.

(9,651 posts)I'm quite content to be sitting in a recliner, watching them do that on a video. I would faint the second I stepped off the edge, which would ensure my death.
With my fear of falling, you wouldn't see me getting anywhere near the edge anyway.

(Thank His Noodly Goodness I'm not cool.)

(28,125 posts)...that kind of nerve. Wind currents on mtn faces might change too quickly. Very cool video tho.
Thanks for posting this, fleur-de-lisa. You gave me a thrill ride from my chair.

(14,492 posts)with a good rope tied to a tree and good rappelling gear on. That was plenty thrilling for me.
Most frightening thing that ever happened was I once almost rappelled onto a big rattle snake sunning itself at the bottom next to my rope. If I hadn't seen it first, it would have nailed me for sure. Luckily, by buddy from above was able to climb down and chase the snake away. We practiced there to hone our caving skills.
Thanks for posting the video clip, fleur-de-lisa.........

(37,648 posts)I might choose to go along with them, but not because they are; I would have my own reasons. But I would probably not jump off a cliff, even it meant saving my life. Fear of heights.
