1--In 1986，a New Zealander Hakett popularized Bungee as a tommercialized sport of mass entertainment. This sport is very challenging. It is a test of people's psycological ability of endurance.Especially when descending , as if they are watching a fast forward tape and when they bounce back，they sway around. The timid people will shrink back at the sight of it. Even if they jump off, they find it hard to avoid screaming with closed eyes. No wonder people give the title "brave"to anyone who jumps off.
2--You see，the bungee participants take a deep breath when they stand at the starting spot and then，like diving，their heads are over heels and they jump off into the realm of the combination of heaven and earth. The wind roars at their ears and their bodies rapidly descend. They do not even have enough time to do several gymnastic movements and they are rebounded to the upper air by the cord.
1--Entrusting life to the care of a rope indeed requires infinite courage.
2--A young French fellow recalled his first bungee experience and said,"When I fastened the cord and walked to the platform ,I was extremely nervous. When I looked down，I was nervous even more. If the cord had broken , I would be knocked to“bakemeat".However, I knew my worries were unwanted. I was afraid if I retreated others might say something about me. I had to harden my heart and impose my head downward.I only felt wind wiring at my ears. My body rapidly descended. I thought that after only seven or eight seconds I was rebounded to upper air by the cord. In fact it was 30 seconds. Maybe because of my nervousness，I only felt seven or eight seconds. When rebounding to the high altitude，I felt a sudden sense of relief. I did not feel nervous very much，but very comfortable.”
1--It is hard to come by in life that you experience this kind of "comfortable"

1--1986年新西兰人哈肯特把蹦极作为商业性大众娱乐运动推广了它。这一运动具有挑战性，是对人心理承受力的考验，特别是下降时，好像是看按了快进的像带，返回时左右摇摆，胆小者会望而却步，即使跳了下去，也难免紧闭双眼大喊大叫，难怪人们会给每一个跳下去的人以“勇敢者”的称号。
2--你看，蹦极者在跳前深吸一口气，然后像跳水一样，头朝下脚朝上，纵身一跃便融入那种与天地合一的境界，耳边呼呼生风，身体急速下降，还没来得及做几个体操动作，又被绳索反弹向高空。
1--把生命寄托给一根绳索，真是需要极大的勇气。
2--一个法国小伙子回忆第一次蹦极时说:“当我系好绳索，走向跳台时，心情非常紧张，再向下一看，心情更紧张了，假如绳索断了，那还不摔成“肉饼”，但我知道担心是多余的，想退回去又怕别人说，只得心一狠，头向下一栽，只觉得耳边呼呼生风，身体急速下附，只有七八秒便被绳索反弹向高空。其实有30秒左右，大概是由于紧张，只感觉有七八秒。弹向高空后，陡然就变得轻松了，也不怎么紧张了，感觉非常舒服。”
1--人生难得几回这种“舒服”啊!
