Victoria Falls Bungi Jumping

The Victoria Falls Bungi jump challenges the limits of your mind. Located on the Victoria Falls Bridge, between the borders of Zimbabwe and Zambia, with the Falls as a backdrop. This is arguably the best bungi jump in the world. Test the boundaries of your fear and experience the true sense of safe recklessness as you plummet 111 metres towards the Zambezi River. WE DARE YOU!

 

Victoria Falls Bungi Jump Options

The Bungi Jump Platform is off the Victoria Falls Railway Bridge, in no mans land between the borders of Zimbabwe and Zambia. So you will need your passport to jump.


Standard Bungi Jump
The most popular jump - The cord is attached to your ankles with a self-loading knot. You are attached to the cord by a full body harness as well. Walk to the edge, take a deep breath and ... 5 - 4 - 3 - 2 - 1 - BUNGI ! ! ! Leap as far away from the platform as possible for the best effect.

 


Star Elevator
You are attached to the cord via a full body harness from your chest area. Hang your heels over the edge of the platform, count down, and jump backwards as far as you can. And don’t forget to scream. This is definitely not one for the faint hearted.

Shooting Star

Same set-up as the Star Elevator but you run off the edge at a sprint. You will flip onto your back and then into one hell of a swing. Fear has no mercy!

Back Dive
The cord is attached to your ankles, as per the standard jump. However this time you leap backwards, flip over and plummet into a headfirst dive. The adrenalin fix you are unlikely to forget.

 


Tandem Bungi Jump
2 people are harnessed together - side-by-side. The cord is attached to both sets of ankles and you jump together. This is a great way for two people to share this adrenaline experience together.

 



Bridge Swing
Just step off the side of the bridge and swing out. The swing is done using two 65 meter static line climbing ropes attached to a load cable. The 1 meter bungi cord is positioned on the clamp to ensure a smooth ride and comfortable swing.



Bridge Slide
The longest "foofie" slide in Victoria Falls. It starts on the Zambian bank of the gorge and ends in a slow stop on the Victoria Falls bridge.

 



Remember
• During the rainy season (Nov to Feb), bungi jumping may be interrupted by rain
• Bungi does not provide transfers to/from the Bridge
• Bring your passport
