And For Our Next Trick: Bungee Jumping Without Our Clothes On

Where: Nanaimo, BC, Canada
November 25, 2008 at 9:05 AM | by amandak | 1 Comment

The last weekend in February every year is the best time to head to Wild Play near Nanaimo on Vancouver Island, BC. Well, we think it's certainly the most interesting time.

That's the weekend when the annual charity fundraiser gets going and you can bungee jump naked off a 150-foot bridge. If you'll take off your clothes pre-jump, you'll get a hugely discounted rate of just C$25 ($20)--it's normally C$99.

In the past this nude bungee day has raised money for organizations like the BC Schizophrenia Society, so you can jump for a good cause--it's definitely rare that stripping off in public could lead to a tax deduction.

    Price and picture

    Thank-you for promoting this annual event, which raises funds and awareness for the BC Schizophrenia Society. In 2009, the price for a "Naked Bungy Jump" is $30 with pre-registration. Also, if someone would like me to contact me, I'd be happy to provide a picture from the event last year to replace the one attached to this story, since our jumpers jump in traditional ankle-style.
