Can anyone take part? Are there health or age restrictions?

Participants must be in good health to take part. You must not jump if you are pregnant or under the influence of alcohol or illegal drugs. If you have high blood pressure, a heart condition, dizziness, epilepsy, asthma, or any injury affecting your neck, back, spine, legs, or eyes — or if you are taking prescribed medication — you must consult a medical professional beforehand and may be required to sign a non-standard waiver. There is no upper age limit, but participants over 50 must seek medical advice prior to taking part and will be asked to confirm they understand the potential risks due to age-related health factors. For a standard bungee jumps, participants must be 14 or older. Those aged 14–16 need a parent or guardian’s permission and signature.

What should I wear on the day?

Dress for the weather in comfortable, casual clothing. Avoid wearing skirts or dresses. Secure footwear is required — trainers or similar shoes are best. Boots or bulky footwear may need to be removed. Glasses and hard contact lenses must also be removed for the jump, though soft contact lenses can be worn.

What if I decide not to jump at the top?

Unfortunately, refunds are not available if you choose not to jump. Once you've reached the jump platform, you've already taken up a pre-booked place and gone through a thorough, resource-heavy preparation process.

Can friends or family come to watch?

Spectators are welcome at most events, and there’s no charge to attend.

Could weather affect the experience?

Yes — high winds or thunderstorms can result in event delays or cancellations. While we always aim to proceed as planned, safety comes first. Please check for live updates or call ahead on the day of your booking before setting off.

How long should I expect to be on-site?

While individual times vary, please allow the following as a guide: Bungee Jump: Allow at least 2 hours on site.

How safe is bungee jumping and what safety systems are in place?

Safety is a top priority. Each participant is secured using both an ankle and a waist harness, with separate attachment points to the jump station for added security. All participants are checked by five separate crew members before jumping, and every step is explained to ensure you're confident before the jump. All equipment is professionally tested and certified, and staff receive regular training and assessments to maintain high safety standards.

What insurance do you have?

The operation holds full public liability insurance, covering legal responsibility in the unlikely event of negligence. However, participants are advised to arrange their own personal insurance to cover participation in adventure activities.

Do you cater for group bookings?

Yes, large group bookings are welcome — including stag and hen parties, charity events, and corporate teams.

What happens after I book my bungee jump?

Once your booking is confirmed, the centre will send you a booking confirmation email. This email will contain your exact jump time and all relevant details for your experience. Additionally, you’ll receive an event pack attached, which will include helpful information such as what to bring, safety guidelines, and answers to common questions. Make sure to check your inbox (and spam folder) to ensure you have all the information needed before your jump.

What is the difference between a solo, tandem, and FAB bungee jump?

A solo bungee jump involves just you taking the leap, securely harnessed by both ankle and waist straps for a thrilling solo experience. A tandem jump lets you share the excitement with a friend or loved one, with both of you jumping together, attached to the same bungee cord. The FAB (Forward and Backward) bungee jump gives you two jumps in one: the first is a traditional headfirst jump, followed by a second jump where you lean out backwards before letting go, offering a completely different sensation. Each type provides a unique way to experience the rush of bungee jumping.

What to Expect

Upon arrival at The Grove site, you’ll be welcomed by the event team and checked in. After registration, you’ll be given a full safety briefing covering everything from harness fitting to what to expect during the jump. The instructors will walk you through the process and be on hand for any last-minute questions. Once you’ve been securely harnessed and your jump type confirmed, you’ll make your way to the jump crane.

The cage is slowly lifted 160ft above ground, giving you time to take in sweeping views of Bristol's beautiful skyline. The FAB jump gives a backward twist to the traditional bungee, while tandem jumping means you can experience the adrenaline with a friend or partner. Once at full height, the countdown begins — and the jump is yours to take. You’ll be lowered back down to the ground and guided out of the harness, with the option to buy media footage or a jump certificate as a keepsake.
