Taking rafting to extremes

Would you float the highest commercially rafted waterfall in the world? 

If you’ve been lucky enough to visit New Zealand, you know what an amazingly spectacular place it is. You also know the Kiwis take their extreme sports quite seriously and typically push everything to extremes.  

Well, their approach to rafting is no different.  

While I knew they pushed the limits on commercial rafting excursions, I had no idea they let clients drop 22foot waterfalls. Check out these videos about Tutea Falls on New Zealand’s north Island.  

Check out the six minute mark for the big drop.

What do you say, would you float it?
