I believe that bungie jumping should be promoted to people who are contemplating suicide, as a kind of "practice run", or "try before you buy". Because, let me tell you, when you step off that bridge for the first time, even though you have a big elastic band strapped around your ankles, all you are thinking is "WHAT THE F*** AM I DOING??? THIS IS SO WRONG!!!". The adrenaline rush is simply amazing, which is what makes it so much fun. The realisation that you are accelerating towards the ground at 10m/s^2, from a great height, is quite ...startling.
Bungie jumping was enough for me. I like it short and sharp. I don't think I'll ever try sky diving.

I watched that film: 'The Bridge' about the people who had jumped during a span of one year and were filmed going overboard. Very disturbing. My motto has always been "don't kill yourself over a boy or money".
