Re: Man Dies After Bungee Jump Goes Wrong
May as well tried using a cardboard box as a set of wings and tried flying. They probably would have thought they would have had a chance lol

Re: Man Dies After Bungee Jump Goes Wrong
The problem is people do not calculate properly the increased length in the rope when it is under tension from the force of the falling body. They measure it when the rope is in a relaxed state. It gets MUCH longer with a body falling. People should try to take physics in school if it is available.
