Hong Kong actor Edison Chen and extreme sports businessman AJ Hackett bungy both bungy jumped to world records yesterday from the 233m Macau Towers in Macau. Immediately following his successful jump, Edison messaged his girlfriend, EEG recording artist, Vincy Chan. Both Edison and AJ Hackett now have the opportunity to have their names recorded in the Guinness Book of World Records.
Prior to the event, Edison’s father, mother and older sister flew to Macau to support him but Vincy was reportedly not in attendance. Edison’s father was so anxious that he experienced stomach cramps while his sister was not able to sleep the night before. Before the jump, Edison commented, “I don’t want to be scared. If I am scared, I will definitely not jump, in which case I would lose ‘face’.”
As he was about to jump at the top of the Macau Tower, Edison cried out, “I love you dad, mum!” When successfully finishing his jump, he happily exclaimed, “I feel great!” It is known that the organizers bought a heavy insurance for Edison. Edison immediately messaged his girlfriend after finishing the jump.
During an interview afterwards, Edison expressed that besides being able to receive a large amount of money, he was able to try something new.
