Bungee cord snaps, jumper lives
10 January 2012
 
You need Flash player 8+ and JavaScript enabled to view this video.
An Australian woman escaped with just cuts and bruises after her bungy cord snapped during a New Year's Eve jump in Africa, sending her flying head-first into raging, crocodile-infested waters.

Erin Langworthy's ill-fated jump from the Victoria Falls bridge - 111 metres above the Zambezi River - was caught on camera, showing the rope snapping and a large splash in the water below.

The footage showed her being washed downstream with the bungy cord still wrapped around her legs.
