A member asked:
Have lower back pain, can i do a bungee jumping?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bungee jumping: Not a good idea. At the least it can aggravate the pain. At worst it might damage the ligaments and muscles in the back. Usually a compressive injury such as landing on your feet can cause more damage, but as you already have back issues, my advise would be to avoid it.
