Flying Fox
Rishikesh, Uttranchal.


When ex Capt. Rahul Nigam decided to set up ‘Jumpin Heights’- India’s first Extreme Adventure zone - in Rishikesh, in 2006, it was for the purpose of bringing to India something its youth could be proud of. Safety and impeccable quality is not something we, as Indians, trust our systems with and that’s something that bothered him immensely. With the ambitious desire to change the face of extreme adventure, including the way organisational safety is perceived in India, he brought in what is arguably one of the most extreme sports worldwide and set up India’s highest Bungy platform (83 mtrs) amidst the stunning landscape of Rishikesh.

This was consciously done to emphasise the fact to the forgetting Indian youth, that natural beauty is something that Indians do not need to go far for, and this needs to be acknowledged, cherished, respected and taken care of.

In the setting up of the place, he chose to learn from the best: A team from New Zealand, the place native to this sport, was flown in to design the Jump Zone based on the original model, which is worlds apart from the previously existing Indian concept of ‘Bungy’ jumping in the mall or from a crane– He was very clear that he wanted to clearly distinguish between entertainment and serious adventure, and a fun evening in the mall or a park is not why Bungy jumping is on so many peoples’ bucketlist.

SAFETY

We have ensured safety by hiring services of technically qualified extreme adventure sports experts with years of experience of operating these sports in New Zealand, the country which has commercialized the BUNGY.

The Jump Platforms have been designed by a team from New Zealand and technically Qualified Jump Masters, with years of experience of operating these sports in New Zealand, have been brought in to handle the operations. We ensure safety by making sure we have a highly experienced crew, a high level of training, the best equipment and procedures in place, as well as a number of checks and counter checks and very thorough inspection schedules.

Discipline of all safety procedures is overseen by ex-Army officers & various safety drills are regularly practiced on site. Operating memebers of our staff are qualified in First Aid and certified by Red Cross, in case of emergencies.

BUNGY STANDARDS

We follow the Australian & New Zealand Standards Authority Guidelines for commercial operations in Bungy Jumping and these standards have now been incorporated to form the Indian Standards which did not exist before:

With regards the safety, there were obviously no official regulations in place, since Bungy had never been practiced on a formal scale before, and Jumpin Heights, based on the New Zealand safety standards, went on to formalise the regulations which are now taken to be the official safety standards for Bungy in India.

PLEASE NOTE : Due to its extreme nature, this sport is not suitable for people with the following medical conditions 1. Back or Neck injuries 2. Recent Fracture 3. Any Dislocation 4. High Blood Pressure 5. Asthma 6. Neurological Disorders 7. Epilepsy 8. Heart Conditions 9. Pregnancy 10. Osteoporosis

In case of any of these conditions, you will be prohibited from Jumping and/or Flying. In case of any other relevant conditions, especially over the age of 40, you are obliged to inform the Crew, and will further be allowed to jump only at their discretion.

Cameras are strictly prohibited on, or around, the jump zone for safety reasons, and this is not negotiable. Videos can be bought separately, in-store.

This being an extreme adventure sport, come prepared to rough it out.
