the trip was a birthday present from her son

It’s very possible she died of a heart attack before hitting bottom.

If I fell from that high it might be wise to land on my butt a possibly survive from the cushion I’d make from pooping my pants.

An investigation has been launched into whether the bungee jumping facility in the town of Pavlovsk, a suburb of St. Petersburg, had fully complied with the law.

Too late for her to be nominated for a Darwin Award, then.

Nothing says “Me! Me! Me!” like taking a selfie.

I love how efficient nature can be, at weeding out the dumb & stupid.

At least “she died doing what she loved.” Yeah, taking pictures of herself.

Falling to death is a rare excitement, one gets to experience only once.

I’m ready for my selfie Mr. Darwin !

Darwin Awards are for those who have not already had children. This lady had 2, the son being 22 years old, she being 45.

" at least she lived a life full of excitement. "

The second jump was likely much more exciting then the first...until she hit bottom.
