Essential Prep For A Good Bungee Experience

Before you take the plunge, here's everything you should know. Wear comfortable clothes and closed shoes. Don’t carry valuables or things that can fall off. Avoid eating before and alcohol is a 100% no no. You have to be between 12 to 65 years old, with parental consent if you're under 18. Make sure you're medically fit and within 40kg to 110kg. If you're 65 or older, grab that doctor's waiver. Disabilities? No worries, they'll assess it case by case. Oh, and sorry folks, if you've got certain medical conditions like recent fractures or heart issues, you have to sit this one out. Safety first, always!

Alright, buckle up and get ready for this extreme adventure sport! And most importantly, have an absolute blast while doing it. It's time to make some unforgettable memories.
