                                  5. Bungee Jumping p.26 

  

Bungee jumping looks like fun. It makes me nervous just to watch someone do it. It certainly takes a lot ofguts to jump one thousand feet above the water with only a rope tied to your legs. It scares me just to thinkabout it. However, it is something I really want to do one day.

Some people think I'm crazy. They say to jump is foolish enough, but to have to pay for it is madness. Idon't agree. For me, to live a short and exciting life is far better than to live a long and boring one. Whatdo you think?
