BUNGEE JUMPING OFF THE VICTORIA FALLS BRIDGE ZAMBIA/ ZIMBABWE

by Gary Bembridge · January 10, 2012

On a 2009 trip to Zambia, Mark (my partner) did the bungee jump off the bridge at Victoria Falls between Zambia and Zimbabwe. This is one of the highest jumps in the world. It is so high and very scary. I was a coward and did not do it.

In January 2011, the cord broke and an Australian Tourist plummeted into the crocodile infested, cold water. And survived amazingly.

In these 2 videos, you see Mark doing this jump as it should be (and it is very scary even without the cord breaking) and then talking about it…

I grew up in Zimbabwe, but I have been based in London since 1987. My travel life spans more than three decades and that includes more than 95 cruises. In 2005, I launched Tips for Travellers to make it easy and fun for people to discover, plan and enjoy incredible cruise vacations. And the rest, as they say, is history. I have the largest cruise vlogger channel currently on YouTube, with more than 3 million video views per month.
