Hello everyone!
Today I picked up my son from kindergarten and we went home along an unusual road for us and came across this place.

Xbungy - Pattaya Bungy Jump / I'll leave a point on this place on worldmappin!

A small lake with strange structures around it appeared before our eyes. We decided to find out what these structures were and drove into the area.
Around the lake there were various structures for extreme entertainment and right at that moment they were going to launch one guy into the air) I only had my phone with me and I immediately started taking pictures with it.

The idea was that a person was fastened to two rubber bands, pulled hard and launched into the air. When they started pulling him back, I was already out of breath (I'm very afraid of heights), and the guy was very cheerful and apparently not at all afraid of everything that was happening.

And then he flew towards the lake at the speed of a bullet - for me it was terrible, but for his company, who were also watching him, it was very funny.
They launched him twice in a row and the second launch, in my opinion, was more extreme.

When it was all over, my son and I went to explore other places on the lake and saw a small area for playing paintball. I was interested in the old cars used as shelters. I took four photos and regretted that I did not have my favorite camera.

The group of young extreme sports enthusiasts did not calm down and we saw how they were going to the largest structure, designed for jumping down from a great height (I could not miss it))

This cabin welded from scrap metal did not inspire confidence, but the guys confidently began to put on their gear without a drop of fear.

The jump was supposed to be double: the guy and the girl were tied by the legs and clasped together facing each other (goosebumps ran down my back again, and sweat appeared on my forehead))
They were lifted to the very top and after a few seconds they fell down like a stone (at that very moment I realized that they were flying not into the lake, but straight to the platform from where they took off) A strange idea - don't you think so))

After them, the second couple decided to jump - I'll make a Gif now and leave it here.

I think that even for 100,000 Hive I would not agree to jump!!!
It seems to me that with age the craving for extreme sports decreases, although there are also grandmothers at 80 years old jumping with a parachute for the first time.

There were very beautiful flowers on the platform and I decided to put them at the end of the post - a little beauty will not hurt!
