Hi,

when I come back from Italy I had a short stop at this point.

On the first pic you will see the Europa bridge which is a part of the Brenner motorway between Austria and Italy. This bridge is one of the highest bridges in Europe with a height of 190 meters.

If you like you can have a Bungee Jump as a special "kick" from this bridge (see pic 2). Unfortunately I had only the 135 mm Jupiter-11A and the 28 mm Tak with me.

Pentax K200D and Tak 3.5/28mm



Pentax K200D and Jupiter-11A 4/135mm



Thanks for viewing and any comments.

Rolf, have you jumped from there? Shocked

No, not this time ... Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing

Earnestly - I never would do this. This would be one of the thrills in my life I could really waive.

Yup, jumping off high things with a bit of rubber strapped to my ankle is not my cup of tea. Good images though.

I agree, Martin. I can't quite see any reasoning for tempting any kind of problem that could cost a life. All it takes is one little bit of human error, or equipment error. Just not for me, I'd rather take my chances in other ways and with not such a horrific outcome if something goes wrong. And if a person did this enough times, something WILL eventually go wrong.
