You have just entered the ultimate jump zone. Established in 1999, we are the ORIGINAL and only cliff jumping site to give you directions to over 480 WorldWide cliff and bridge jumping sites. "Somewhere in Kentucky" just doesn't do it for us.
THE IDEA.
To make it easy for cliff jumpers to find jump sites. And to offer cliff jumpers the opportunity to show the world what they are made of by posting their jumps and directions to them for all to see and enjoy(ORIGINAL IDEA).
BE CAREFUL.
Take a look at Illinois1 and also Jump Junkie Fails to see what happens when you don't have a clue what you're doing.
Cliff jumping is a very dangerous sport, so if you are not a cliff jumper please enjoy this site but don’t go out and start jumping. People have seriously and even fatally injured themselves, so please be safe. Always swim down and check the water and always wear shoes. Shoes help with the impact upon entrance and also with walking around the cliffs and surrounding terrain (broken glass, jagged rocks). And never jump because your buddy is calling you a wimp. Cliff jumping takes practice and even then might not be for you.
CLIFF JUMPING GUIDELINES.
For beginners friendly heights(10-15 feet)start out straight and stay that way. For higher jumps(upward of 50 feet), jump up and out, keep arms overhead and in motion. If you're leaning to one side, "flap" your arms to return upright. If you go in at an angle, you'll hit the water like it's cement. Just before you break the surface, make certain your legs are together and straight, and, depending on which feels more natural, lock your arms either overhead(my personal choice)or at your sides. Never just fall or step off a cliff. This will only give gravity power over you!
