Erin Langworthy was exploring Zambia in 2012 when she made a decision to take on the challenge of bungee jumping from a bridge overlooking the Zambezi River, known for its strong currents and crocodile population.

What was supposed to be a thrilling experience took a terrifying turn when her bungee cord snapped mid-air, sending her plummeting 360 feet into the rushing waters below.

Footage that was shared on social media captured the moment Langworthy plunged into the water after the cord gave way.

Struggling against the powerful current, Langworthy fought to stay afloat as the river carried her downstream.

Miraculously, she survived the fall and the potential threat of lurking predators.
She reportedly had to swim with her feet tied together and free the cord as it got caught on rocks.
