| Usually there should not be any accidents in bungee jumping
at all. Most common are minor traumas such as gripping the elastic
rope while rebounding. But severe accidents are possible due to incompetence
of the main crew responsible for the jumps. There are operators who
do not observe certain norms in bungee jumping such as using a particular
cord about a certain period mostly of 7 months - inadvertence, which
may cause even the break of the cord. Also the performer should be
very well tied to the harness. In unusual weather some cords do not
behave properly which may lead to something serious. The inexperienced
jumper is not enough well informed about what he is about to do and
so he does not have control over the situation. There are restrictions
concerning the wind speed and the position and angle of the crane
and the cage at crane sites. It is possible to hit the crane or the
platform from where the jump was performed. Sometimes even the worst
is possible. But with the competent crew such things are impossible. |
