The Division of Occupational Safety & Health (DOSH) Amusement Ride Division will only award a permit to operate after a faultless demonstration of safe bungee jumping methods. Bungee America rises to the occasion once more as California's only fully licensed and state-certified bungee company. With over 20 years of experience, they are the experts in the industry when it comes to safety. Bungee jumping is a dangerous sport that requires proper training and a license. However, with the right equipment, there is no reason why anyone should not be able to enjoy this thrill at any age or size. The key is knowing how to perform a safe jump and being willing to accept full responsibility for your own safety. While most people assume that because bungee jumping is illegal in many countries that all bungee jumpers are criminals, this is not true. Most bungee jumpers are experienced freefall skiers and snowboarders who also participate in other extreme sports. They know what they're getting into and take appropriate precautions. The crime rate for bungee jumpers is close to zero; they tend to be law-abiding citizens who know their rights and exercise them responsibly. If you're considering trying out bungee jumping, make sure to do so only at licensed facilities that follow strict safety protocols.
