The oldest person to bungee jump was by Mohr Keet at the age of 96
The forces at work are*gravity*air resistance*spring force*friction
bungee jumping was named after the strong elastic cords that are used for securing the jumper
The forces and gravity that affect the bungee jumpers performance?*gravity affects the jumper by pulling him/her down to Earth as soon as he or she jumps*air resistance affects the jumper because it pushes the jumper upwards after reaching the bottom of the rope*spring force affects the jumper by pulling back on him/her after the rope has stretched to it's maximum
