I have some videos and photos of the jump but that was on my old domain
(arnesson.nu) and that is inactive now. I might try to reproduce the crane in

And I would not hesitate to jump again, wildest experience so far in my life.
Even beats parachuting 'cause you realize the ground is for real. Someday I'll
go to Queenstown NZ and top it! :)

Been there, done that...
Queenstown Nevis Highwire Bungy... 134m (=~440 feet)
Wow.
