Covered live by Sky News, the Press Association and many other news services, the UK Bungee Club's new record has been featured in reports all over the world including the USA, Australia, India, China, Italy, Germany and Gibraltar.

The attempt took place in Potters Fields; London, in the shadows of Tower Bridge - one of the club's annual locations partnered with Ex Element as part of an event organised by Rat Race London.
