Then you can take the elevator to the 61st floor and find the bungee jumping place. Because the 61st floor of Macau Tower is used for sightseeing and bungee jumping, so you’d better decide the order of sightseeing and bungee jumping. After jumping, you have to come up to take away your own things. You need to register the information at the bungee jumping office, sign the certificate of life and death and receive a red T-shirt. After that, you can go to the locker room to store things and change clothes, 20 Portuguese coins for a cabinet. Do not carry any potentially dangerous things on your body. Jewellery is not allowed, even the cash in your pocket. After changing your clothes and putting on a red T-shirt, you can tie a safety rope on your waist. Later, you can go to a place to weigh your weight and the number of your weight will be written on the back of your hand. After that, a staff member will come and explain the precautions to you for bungee jumping. The staff will speak in English throughout the process. Then you will sit on the small bench and just wait for your turn.
 

When the coach calls you, you will enter the outdoor preparation area and sit on a chair that says “ARE YOU READY”. There is a pullable device beside the left leg rope. When it reaches the lowest point of the free fall, you can pull it, then the whole person will bounce up, presenting a sitting posture. Through this posture, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery, otherwise, you will keep head down to the ground. You can try a few times to confirm that you can pull before you jump. During this period, a dedicated cameraman will take pictures for you. A GO PRO will also be tied to your hand to record the entire bungee jumping process.
 

You will slowly move to the platform, and the cameraman will also turn to the side platform to take pictures. When you have greeted different cameras, the coach will kick off a level on the platform. This level is connected to the rope, so you will have a feeling that something pulls you out. After the level is kicked, there is a countdown, if you don’t yell. With the coach calling out the countdown to 5 seconds, you will jump and experience the excitement and freedom of free fall.
 

After falling on the ground cushion, with the red T-shirt on you, you can directly return to the 61st floor and start sightseeing and taking pictures. You can get the USB in about 20 minutes and there is a computer next to you to check the videos and photos first. The e-Cert will be sent to your mailbox the next day. It will also provide a membership card and all future activities at the AJ Hackett Club with 20% off.
