where did it start ?
"it's the most amazing sport i've ever tried!"That's what fans say. Bungee jumping started with the people of vanuatu in the Pacific They threw themselves down from towers with their ankles tied with vines A group of students from oxford university saw a film of the vanuatu's' actions and copied this ancient practice. since then, bungee jumping has become popular around the world.
However,for the people of Vanuatu,land diving is not a game This ritual has an important meaning in the life of the people Men and boys as young as seven dive from towers as a sign of courage and strength They believe that if a diver's hair touches the ground,the action will fertilize the ground and will help produce a good crop of yams so, every year, in early April,islanders begin building at least one tall wooden tower in each village.
