    #7 is actually at the Nevis Highwire in Queenstown, NZ (134m), not the Auckland Bridge.

    The Sky Tower in New Zealand does 192m bungy although it’s a cross between bungy and base jumping!

    Auckland Bridge is 40 m.
    One missing is the Royal Gorge Suspension Bridge, USA 321 m which is only avalable during the Go Fast Games which is 3 days each September, I think.

    I have jumped from 4 of the above, the Versasca Dam(007 golden eye)in Switzerland, the Bloukrans Bridge in South Africa, the Nevis high wire and the Aukland Bridge in New Zealand and will be jumping Victoria falls, Zimbabwe in January.
    i Have jumped 12 world wide not including the sky Tower in Auckland New Zealand twice. 2 off cranes in the UK, 2 in Canada (Edmonton and Calgary), 1 in Las Vegas USA, 5 in New Zealand (Auckland, Taupo and Queenstown), 1 in South Africa and 1 in Switzerland. 5 of which were into water.
    I love it as you may have guessed. I would love to get the Europabrücke in Austria under my belt next year.

      Right, I just checked Wikipedia. I wonder where they got 134 m from.

      Thanks for mentioning the Go Fast Games. Found this link http://www.gofasteventcompany.com/

      As for your bungee jumping experience, wow…! Enjoy Victoria Falls next year! Hope you’ll make it to the Europabrücke as well.

      i envy you gordon thats awesome you have done some many jumps and i want to do the same! my bro and i went from canada to queenstown NZ to visit our sister and her boyfriend who was working for A.J. hackett bungy at the time.. through him we met a few other guys who worked there. that was sweet because when we jumped the Nevis and Kawarau Bridge (twice each) they showed us different ways to jump which heightened our experience. if possible i recommend you try doing a bullet, pendulum or elevator…all super fun! we also jumped the Ledge while in queenstown. anyways just thought i’d share my experiences and hope to have more soon. happy jumping!
