G'day everybody I am near the loud downtown Melbourne Australia today
And for today's adventure I'm going to be doing something completely new to me
I am going to the rap jumping
Rap jumping. It's like backwards abseiling hardly anyone's heard of this to my knowledge
Not quite sure what to expect here, but that's the fun of it. Let's get going come join me
Apparently, this is the building I'll be running down
What's gonna happen is I'm gonna feed the rope through the 8, and connect the 8 up to you
We're waiting for a van to move right now. So that we can drop down to the ground
Are you ready?
Right leg over
Open your hands, start running down
Alright
One, two, three, gloves, and helmet
Let's go. Right to the side, sticking that elbow out
Open is go, close is stop
Are you ready? (READY) Alright
Left leg over, sticking down
Right leg over
And away we go
this is freaking awesome
Push off
I hope we're taking an elevator this time
Checking your buckles 1 2 3 Check those gloves, helmet is secure
Alright
Left leg up OK 1 2 3 standing up, well done
Alright, now lean your whole body forward lean forward, lean forward, lean forward
Open your hands, take your steps Start walking, start walking. Well done
Good job
Down to the ribbon
Big jump. OY!
One more
Open your hands Good work
That was great
You've done that before, haven't you
Aha, i have not
Elbow out
There it is
So rap jumping was actually invented by the Australian SAS which I think is the special forces
At the making of this video I think this is the only place you can do this commercially in the world
Which is pretty cool
Left leg up 1 2 3 standing up
lean forward, lean forward, lean forward
Open your hands
Down to the ribbon Big jump
Good work
Hey guys, thank you so much for joining me on this rap jumping adventure
Man, this was really awesome. Come to Melbourne and do this. It's great!
For a minute there I thought we might be doing some like running starts and then jumping
But apparently that's not safe enough for beginners
But I would have given it a go either way
