BANGKOK (The Straits Times/Asia News Network): A tourist in Thailand sought the thrill of freefalling but wound up in a hospital after the bungee cord attached to his feet snapped in mid-air.
Mike, who is from Hong Kong, had leapt off a platform 10 storeys high - about 30m - before his cord broke, sending him plunging into a lake in popular Thai tourist destination Pattaya.
