Vang Vieng, Laos.

 NO!

 YES!
 the first attempt i let go awkwardly and landed horizontally, smacking my face quite nicely.  i can still feel the burn.
 one of many death-traps.

 they wait by the river and toss you a line, reel you in, then give you booze.

They say that at least 2 people die in the river each year... i wondered why?  Until I got on the quick-flowing, flooded river and was handed a bottle of whisky to chug for free at the first of many riverside bars.  They get you drunk, then throw you in the river.  
Now I understand...
