| Today is the day for the bungy jump! The Bloukrans River Bungy Jump is officially recognised by Guinness World Records as being the World’s Highest Commercial Bungy Jump at a terrifying 216 m high!
The guys have been talking about doing the Bloukrans Bungy the entire trip. Everyone was nervous about it. They decided that they had shot enough footage of perfect J-Bay and it was time to check out the Bungy Jump!
I decided that this was the perfect time to get into the water with no one around. I handed my car keys to Greg Browning and ran down to Supertubes. It was still cooking. 1 guy I the water and the sun was about to rise...
I surfed perfect J-Bay until I couldn't paddle anymore and then went back to the house to meet the guys as they got back from the Bungy jump. They were laughing so much I couldn't wait to see the footage they had taken of the jump. I was really bummed to have missed out on doing the jump but my decision had allowed me one of the best surfs of my life - so I got over it pretty quickly. :)
Everyone got to surf today even the film crew! Pat caught one of the best waves of his life and Noodles snapped his board!
In the evening after spending ages checking out the masses of film and photos taken during the day, we went to walked to a restaurant behind Supertubes and had the most insane evening ever!!!
The owner of the restaurant had a few guitars and a full mike and amp setup. It didn't take Donny long to plug in and started jamming. It was sitting next to him so i grabbed a guitar and jammed along. The Pat o Connell joined us and later Kelly Slater stepped up!
The guys were taking turns in singing and the place was rocking!!! Things got really loud and pretty much out of control - it was awesome!!
