  • Land Diving - Pentecost Island,Vanuatu
The precursor to bungee jumping, men jump off of wooden towers around 20 to 30 metres high, with two or tree vines wrapped around the ankles. Land diving is done without any safety equipment. The tradition has developed into a tourist attraction. According to the Guiness World Records, the G-Force experienced by those at their lowest point in the dive is the greatest experienced in the non-industrialized world by humans.
