Our month in Zimbabwe was one I’ll never forget on the Race. We saw hundreds come to Christ and raised triple the amount of money we were asking for to hand out nearly 200 Bibles. On our way out of Africa we had the opportunity to stop by Victoria Falls. 

And I did the scariest thing in my life. I jumped off a bridge, straight down toward the Zambezi River that straddles the border of Zambia and Zimbabwe. 

Many have already had their laugh at this video. I brought my gopro with me on the jump. I can say that without a doubt the tears, hyperventilating and screams were all worth it!

 

So for your entertainment, here it is!
