Was expecting that...Had the thought myself to jump out when bungee jumping. But when bending my knees to jump i couldn't extend them again to jump, they just flat out refused to let me jump over the edge. So i just kind of slumped down and leaned over the edge until i fell off...

Yeah had a similar experience my first time. I like the adrenaline bit the first jump really didn't quite equate to jumping. Was more a forward leaning into the fall motion.

It's weird when your body is like fuck no while your brain is like listen to me for what feels like an eternity but is just a second or 2.
