Gorge Swing at Victoria Falls not for the faint of heart
This is an intense and scary swing and happens on the Zimbabwean side of Victoria falls. The Zambezi river does have a similar one and a bungee jump as well. This is not a bungee jump and therefore no bouncing involved. This is a swing and can be very scary as you go plummeting down into the water. Give it a try when you're in Zimbabwe. [Image Source]
