The steel platform is constructed over some cliffs that overlook the bay. Participants have to pay a fee of $50 and sign off on a form prior to bungee jumping from the platform. The form contains amongst other things these words:-The participant agrees that he/she will not hold Bungee World Ltd or its agents liable for any death or injury whatsoever or howsoever caused as a result of bungee jumping from the Seamonster.?One day, Loki an investment banker decided to go for a jump on the Sea Monster. He pays the fee, signs the form and duly walks to the platform. Kate, BWs professional bungee instructor meets him and gets him ready for the jump by ensuring that his legs are tied securely to the safety rope that is attached to the steel platform.Loki a first time jumper anxiously asks Kate if this is going to be fine whereupon she assures him that in all her 10 years at BW since it began operations, she has yet to see anyone get physically injured from the jump.Loki takes a deep breath and dives. Unfortunately, part of the steel platform that is attached to the safety rope breaks loose from the main platform.

The contract had a cooling-off period of 10 days but Dave said that if Rebecca agreed to waive the cooling-off period, Dave could install the filter straightaway. She agreed to waive the cooling-off period in the contract, paid Dave the $2000 in cash and Dave subsequently installed the Ono water filter.Rebecca now approaches you for advice. She says that the Ono water filter is working fine but she really has no need for it and she felt pressured to purchase it.
