Funnies Flashback

WE’VE trawled through the TD Window Seat archives to give you a blast from the past. Here’s some gems from 09 Oct 2013:

ADVENTURE tourism is great, but this might be a bit much. A new bungy jumping world record has been set by Aussie Jay Phoenix, who has leapt into history by doing 150 of the daredevil dives in one day.

Phoenix performed the feat in Brisbane, bungy jumping repeatedly from a 40m platform attached to a crane.

The previous record was a measly 105 jumps in 24 hours set in 2011 by South African Kevin Huntly.

The new record holder set the mark in just under 21 hours, finishing at 3.30am.

“My ankles are totally destroyed,” he said afterwards.
