It started in Vanuatu, via the Oxford University Dangerous Sports club before being popularised by New Zealand's Dr Adrenaline, AJ Hackett. Now Kiwi Bungy is spreading across the world. A group of enterprising bungy freaks have just set up 3 sites for Kiwi Bungy Japan.
Another strange Kiwi activity I can highly recommend is Zorbing. A Zorb is a large plastic ball that you are strapped into and rolled down a hill (the Dry Zorb). Or you attempt to stand up in the Zorb with a bucket of cold water while you are rolled down a hill (the Wet Zorb). It's very like being in the spin cycle of a washing machine and a lot of fun.
[N.B. Filming from inside a Dry Zorb with a hangover is not recommended.]
