Bungee jumping sounds fun, right? The so-called “sport” has long been one of those three-beers-in vacation stunts that earns a person lifetime cocktail party cred, because having done it confers a certain badass-ness that belies how statistically insignificant accidents are on the old rubber bands. And, yes, it looks pretty fun. They test those things, right?

But then, there’s this terrifying possibility, in which a plucky woman’s cord snaps, dropping her 60 feet into the alligator-infested Zambezi River 365′ below the sketchy-looking leap-off point. Watch to see the aftermath; forget bungee jumping ever again. (Via Adventure Journal)
