Here’s another exotic bungee jumping location for you: Longqing Gorge, China.
Standing at 164 ft (50 m) in Longqing, China, this tower jump costs roughly $20. Not too bad. The destination is only 56 miles northwest of Beijing, a short day trip that can be gotten to from a city bus for a fraction of the price of what you’d pay for a tour bus.
The Royal Gorge Games 2009 brought to us by Go Fast!, featuring bungee jumping, B.http://www.greatbigleap.com/wp-admin/index.phpA.S.E. jumping, and much more, will be held between September 25th and 28th in Cañon City, Colorado this year.

Here is the schedule for the event:
Looks like there will be some great demonstrations, but I think I would most be looking forward to participating in the bungee jumps for the public on the 25th!
This event is located at the Royal Gorge Bridge (see locations). This jump is 1053 ft (321 m). Here is a link to the Royal Gorge Bridge website: http://www.royalgorgebridge.com/.
We now have 20 bungee jump locations mapped. You can view them by clicking on ‘locations’ above, or by clicking here.
We’re working hard to carefully and accurately curate each of these location. Work is being done to find as many spots that are commercially accessible as possible. Links provided point to the company that can get you there and get you jumping.
This site is still building. Check back often for more updates, more locations, and more information on bungee jumping.
What a location! Going to Greece? If you fly in to Athens and aren’t going to the islands (or are coming back) for a few days, try bungee jumping off this bridge in southern Greece, just a short train trip from Athens.
Whatever you do, stay away from hostels near the train station in Thessaloniki, or you’ll be cuddling with bed bugs.
As we’re building, let us know what you want? We know from experience (and research) that the bungee sites out there today are lackluster, and certainly aren’t aimed at you.
What are you looking for in a bungee jump resource? Let us know.
As you can see, the site is making some dramatic changes everyday. We’re really excited about showing you what’s to come for this site. Expect more updates soon.
