"Best Friends Forever" p.11 blog post #5

Why do you think that "New Pretty Town" advocates bungee jumping?
I think they allow bungee jumping because some of the new pretties want to do something fun that includes an adrenaline rush . Others probably do it to prove that they're cool or something like that.

Bungee Jumping:
Ancient stories claim that bungee jumping history began when a wife who tricked her husband into plunging to his death by jumping from a tree with a vine tied to her feet(unbeknownst to her husband) This legend led men on the island of Vanuatu to begin jumping from trees with vines tied to their feet as a shadow of manhood.
