British Man Survives 165-foot Failed Bungee Jump In Thailand (Video)
Total Pro Sports - There are plenty of things that one may want to experience in Thailand, but bungee jumping should not be on of them.
Even if you are the type that enjoys extreme sports, or death defying stunts, there comes a point when practicality must overcome all other ambitions. Unfortunately, this one man was unable to identify that very practicality we are speaking of.
This British tourist thought he was about to embark upon a thrilling ride while in a foreign counrty, but instead he was only preparing himself to experience their medical care system. When he takes off from the platform with his bungee cord attached, things seem to be going as planned until the rope reaches it's limit and the man's legs slide right out of the harness. Although the bungee cord bounces back up, the man does not. Instead, he plummets into the lagoon below. Thankfully, he did not die, but he did suffer a ruptured spleen.
Interestingly enough, he performs the sign of the cross prior to takeoff. Someone should have told him that God's power is no match for shoddy bungee equipment.
This is from a news report
holy shit
IM SO HIGH, I DON’T EVEN KNOW WHO MY OWN NAME WAS!
that’s in pattaya – thailand. sex capital of the world.

Your mom’s room is the sex capital of the world.
holy shit…. i went bungee jumping there, wen i was in thailand last year….thats freaky, to know that could of happened to me or something
>God’s power is no match for shoddy bungee equipment
He survived, what else do you want?
That a gigantic glowing hand reaches out from the clouds and catches him?
A) God had absolutely nothing to do with it at all, and yes I want a gigantic glowing hand to pop out of the sky before i believe that he did
B) why would you do something so dangerous that relies heavily on equipment, in a crappy country like thailand, thats just stupid
At least he was above water, not land
OH MY GOD!!!! I can’t believe that! Incredible that he didn’t die. I have been skydiving before, no problem. I am deathly afraid of the bungee jump and this is exactly why. I here the bungee jumping in Koh Samui is pretty good though…
what an idiot. why would you hop off the platform upright??
