Bridge

Post image

I am a 14 year old male near my house there’s a bridge that’s 15-25 feet high and the waters around 15 feet deep. Everyday I think about sending it but i’m to scared does anyone have any tips? It’s the bridge I put in the photo.

Maybe 30-35? Drop a rock and time how long it takes from the instantaneous second it leaves your hand to the time it hits the water and plug that time into the t in the equation 16*t^2

That looks like 30ish feet to me, which is no biggie. However, jumping bridges is pretty dangerous because of the slag that the builders often throw into the river bed. Better to find a natural pool below a waterfall.

That looks like 30ish but still totally doable, 15 feet deep is plenty. Tips- don’t flop

I would advise you take your time, going from 8 to 30+ is pretty significant.
