Bungee jumping tests the limits of trust and courage as participants leap from towering heights tethered only by an elastic cord. While thrilling, the sport’s high-impact nature increases the risk of injury, especially if conditions are not optimal.

The rapid rebound of the bungee cord can strain or injure the spine and neck.
