A woman has plunged into crocodile-infested waters after her bungee rope snapped.
Erin Laung Worth had jumped from the Victoria Falls bridge above the Zambezi River, when the cord snapped in two.

She said "it went black straight away and I felt liked I had been slapped all over".
She said she had to swim with her feet tied together to the Zimbabwe side of the water, and had to free the cord when it got caught on rocks.

In other news, people are stupid enough to bungee jump over crocodile-infested waters.
Guess the bungee cord was "Made in China"?
I saw an extended version of this that involved an interview with the young lady in question. Not only did the cable break, but when people fished her out the water they laid her on her back so she couldn't breathe. Jesus, I knew not to do that when I was 4.
That rope looks really frayed at the beginning of the video.
This is why you never rely on the expertise of providers for extreme sports of any sort in third world countries.
There were no safety measures or a recovery plan of any sort in place there.Then, when the accident occurred there was zero initiative on the part of the operators apparent. An inflatable raft stationed in the river is the screamingly obvious necessitate.Add crocodiles to the mix though, and only an idiot make that jump.
