Reason 1-of-1 I Will Never Go Bungee Jumping

Bungee jumping to me always looked really fun. I spent some time in Australia where it's a huge tradition, kind of the touristy thing to do.

Here's the reason I will never go bungee jumping, EVER.

According the Telegraph an Australian tourist, Erin Langworthy, fell into the Zambezi River on New Year's Eve after the rope snapped on her descent.

Langworthy, 22, managed to swim her way to shore in the crocodile-infested water even though her legs were bound with the cord.

"I think it is definitively a miracle that I survived," Langworthy told Australia's Channel 9.

Langworthy spent a week in the hospital recovering even though she wasn't seriously injured in the fall.
