• A full harness bungee jump from 48 meters
• The only bridge jump in the UK
• All equipment, safety checks and bungee club membership included

Built in 1911, the Middlesbrough Transporter Bridge is the perfect setting for the first ever bridge jump in the UK and is one of only three operating transporter bridges in the world. On arrival you will be weighed and kitted out with your back up harness, ready for the biggest climb of your life - 210 steps to the top of the bridge. Once at the top you'll walk 48 meters along to the jump zone. Soak up the fabulous views as you get kitted out and made ready for your jump. Then after a few words of encouragement, and a few very deep breaths, it's 1... 2... 3... bungee! You'll plummet towards the River Tees (try to keep your eyes open!) before the bungee rope reaches its return point and you ping back skywards. After a few more bounces, you'll be gently lowered into a waiting speedboat. Once back on terra firma, you can pick up your certificate.

Location: Middlesbrough, North Yorkshire
