I remember this bridge, in Raglan. I remember all the people that jumped off of it. It did look like they were having an incredible amount of fun. I don't even know how deep those waters were. Either way, today's tragic event demonstrates that there is danger in this activity.
Today a 16 year old young man, died as his friend landed on top of him. His friends searched for him, and found him 10 - 15 minutes later. He could not be revived. Full story in The New Zealand Herald.
There is a video embedded in the article which shows the bridge, and people jumping off the bridge.
