Bungee Jumping Travel Insurance

What is Bungee Jumping?

Bungee Jumping is an extreme sport involving jumping from a high structure while connected to a large elastic cord. The thrill comes from the free-falling and the rebound. When the person jumps, the cord stretches and the jumper flies upwards again as the cord recoils, and continues to oscillate up and down until all the energy is dissipated.

Do I Need Travel Insurance for Bungee Jumping?

Yes. Bungee jumping can result in injuries from the intense rebound and potential equipment failure. If you're traveling abroad for bungee jumping adventures, travel insurance helps protect you against medical expenses, equipment loss, and trip cancellations.
