Ryan Bungee Jumping!
There is a mall here near where I live that has a bungee jump. It’s a contraption that has a trampoline and swing arms with bungees. I put Ryan on this thing a couple months ago and he absolutely loved it! This is the third time he’s done this. Each time - he says he’s being spiderman.
Well - each time - I also keep forgetting to bring my camera. Well - I improvised and used my camera phone. These pictures are a bit grainy - but - I think you will get the idea. He gets to jumping so high on these things he’s pretty close to 20 feet or so off the floor - he gets real close to the ceiling of this mall.
Look how high up he is on that one!
Here he is coming back down and hitting the tramp. Sorry it’s not real clear - but - he’s moving - and it’s a camera phone!
And..here he is on his way back up again!
Usually, they have him facing out towards the mall. I’m not entirely sure why they faced him inside this time. In fact - there are a total of four trampolines and four bungee arms - all the kids were facing to the inside.
He pretends he’s spiderman - and - when he gets to the top - he’ll put his hands out like he’s shooting a web and he’ll do the leg pose and everything - then yell down - “Hey, Dad! Look - I’m spiderman!”
Well - it just wasn’t the same this time with him facing inside. It hadn’t occurred to me at the time to ask them why everyone was facing inside - I think the next time I take him there I’ll ask him - and I’ll remember to bring my camera.
