Indoor Bungee Jump

Posted by Lisa

Imagine… You’re enveloped in semi-darkness, spotlights are whirling around Magna’s breathtaking structure, standing 150 feet tall. You commence the 143 step climb to the jump zone, music pumps out of speakers, and seven huge video screens project images of what you are about to experience and that’s before you’ve even taken the plunge.

On arrival you will be required to complete a membership form and given a full safety briefing and will be weighed to ensure the correct bungee rope is used. You will make your way up to the top of the jump zone - then, all that’s left is for you to leap off, forwards or backwards, it’s up to you!

300ft Bungee Jump

Posted by Lisa

Need something with a bit extra, well a 300ft bungee jump will do just that!

A crane will winch you to a height of 300ft - the highest available jump in the UK before you are dispatched and experience over four seconds of freefall. A fantastic experience and one you will not forget. With your feet still firmly on the ground, you will be weighed and be brought up to speed on safety procedures. You will be fitted with your harnesses before being winched up in the cage with a jump master. Once he’s convinced everything is okay, it will be “3-2-1 BUNGEE” and off you go!

Tandem Bungee Jump

Posted by Lisa

3, 2, 1, BUNGEE! These are the last words you will both hear before launching yourself from a 170ft platform and plummeting rapidly towards the ground! Once you have jumped you will both share a euphoric sense of achievement with the knowledge that you have overcome your fears and jumped with nothing more than an elastic band to save you!

Agenda:
On arrival you must complete a membership form for insurance purposes. You both will be given a full safety briefing and weighed - this ensures they get the Bungee rope length correct! From there you proceed to the bungee cage where you are securely attached to each other. The cage is then slowly raised to 170ft to ensure you are both more than a little scared. Then it’s time for the easy bit, just jump!
