Blog Post#5"Best Friends Forever"

Why do you think "New Pretty Town" advocates bungee jumping?
I think that since all the people are now prettys and they don't have to follow some of the ugly rules they feel free to do whatever they want. It's probably something that most prettys do. If they bungee jump it's another great thing that they get to do as a pretty ,so they probably do it to get a thrill ride they couldn't get before.

History of Bungee Jumping:
Bungee Jumping was originally an ancient ritual or right of passage for the "vine jumpers" of Pentecost Island in the Pacific Ocean Vanuatu group. Every year, the men of the island's tribe build large wooden towers, over 80 feet high.
They then carefully select vines from the jungle which they then tie to their ankles before jumping off the top of the towers.
