About a week ago a few of us, 5 to be exact, went to Grenoble for a bungee jump from the Ponsonnas bridge. It took us about 12 hours by bus to get there, together with some colleagues from our holding company Cronos. And…it took us 14 hours to get back home. All this for a jump that only lasts 5 seconds. Statistics: 4 of us jumped, 1 didn’t.
Was it fun? According to all 50 in the bus, “yes”.
