Provide a link, or I will stuff this idea, apple and all,
with a croissant. [21 Quest] |
|
|
Link? First I've got to find someone stup^H^H^H^Hbrave enough to try it. |

Pretty much anyone from South of the Manson-Nixon line should do ... |
|
|
I LOVE this idea. All it needs is the addition of a piñata attack
on the way down, with nothing but a baseball bat to defend
yourself. |

|
//Manson-Nixon line// I've not heard of this - does it run from the San Fernando Valley to a phone in a Washington, D.C. hotel? |
|
|
//but I wonder if it would even be possible without crushing the apple. |

Or one's face, for that matter. |

I recall seeing a TV bit about some fellow who got his bungeeing precise enough that he was able to bungee-drop to the ground, quick-release his harness, and watch the bungees go snaking back up without him, whilst staggering just a bit on landing. I offer that as the best precison of the sport, and ask if the apples will be floating in water, resting on concrete, or impaled on some wicked spikes? |
|
|
+ very cute, but seeing that apple trees aren't all that big/tall, would one really consider it an *extreme* sport?... how about bungeeing for coconuts? |
|
|
The forces should be roughly those of your head striking the ground. Veterans of the sport likely to be toothless. |

This has been baked (with CGI) by Carling in their
advertisements. Perhaps they lifted the idea from
here... |
