Bungee
There's just something about jumping off a perfectly safe bridge with nothing but a piece of elastic to stop you from plunging into the ground below that doesn't really appeal to me!! I personally belong firmly into that 'done it once never again' category. But, hey - I know a whole bunch of people who are addicted to this bizarre pastime!! So if you're after that adrenaline rush........Worlds' Highest Bungee

Bungee jumping in South Africa
Weehah! South Africa has the highest commercial bungee jump in the world - it's official. At 216 metres, it's not for the faint of heart! Run by Face Adrenalin, the Bloukrans is on the border (in fact it is the border) between the Eastern Cape and Western Cape provinces.
The same company also offers a range of jumps on the much lower Gouritz River Bridge. Here you'll also find South Africa's only bridge swinging operation, run by Wildthing Adventures.
Not sure what the difference is between bungee jumping and bridge swinging? With bungee, you jump off a bridge, held on by giant elastic bands - usually, but not always, tied to your feet. Bridge swinging, on the other hand involves jumping from one bridge, while tied in to climbing ropes suspended from an adjacent bridge.
