Generally speaking, BASE (Building, Antenna, Span, Earth) jumpers do it for the adrenaline rush. BASE jumpers are experienced skydivers and, as such, one should never attempt a BASE jump unless adequately qualified.

There are many reasons:

  1. Some jumpers have a pioneering spirit, a desire to do something few others do.
  2. BASE jumping takes you to some beautiful places such as large mountains or the roof tops of large skyscrapers during the night.
  3. Its simply a very exhilarating, fun sport to partake in.
  4. Its a great way to get fit.
  5. The opportunities for travelling around the world and meet like minded people.
  6. To reach places very few reach. For example, a small ledge on a cliff or the top of a bridge.
  7. Lastly, to earn an income. Occasionally, a few jumpers are able to make a living from this sport, either through instructing or film work.

How do you do bungee jumping?

If you want to bungee jump safely, then I would suggest doing it at a permanent station rather than a traveling place such as at a fair or something. You will then get in line at the bungee jumping event. Then they will strap some proper safety straps on you and you will jump from a platform.
