Add Comment   "I jump for fun on the Yough river with all my Richmond paddling buddies. I jump for lost paddles, broken paddles, bruises and cuts, but most of all, good times with good friends." - Michael  The angel shot: "I jump to become one again with this beautiful river." - Harrison  "I jump because I can (and grass freaks me out)." - Andy  "This is my friend Dave nailing the sledding jump at the bottom of Mt. Philo. He's jumping because action shots are awesome. And there was a little peer pressure involved..." -Rob  John jumps because the sand is hot and the air is cool. Erin jumps because she loves the beach and bikinis, her family and her jumping boyfriend.  "I jump because there is nothing better to do in Oregon!" -Nikki (actually from California)  "So this is totally a pic of two young, hot, naive, virgin jumpers to jump because. (Don't worry it was consensual.) We jump to be gay and free. We jump to bash the heads of toadstools and turtles with wings. We jump because it is compulsory. Because we are compelled by some age old instinct. We must jump. We are jump. Because jump is weeeeeeeee." -Colin and Pirate  "I jump because I want to spread the happiness that floats inside our hearts!!!"  "I jump because the lighting was right!" - Peter  "I jump because my ointment's workings (I got bed bugs-YUCK!)." -Margaret | Welcome to Jump Because!

 In November of 2011, we asked jumpers to submit a photo that kept the spirit of Thanksgiving and this quote in mind:
"We can only be said to be alive in those moments when our hearts are conscious of our treasures." -Thornton Wilder This photo above, sent in by Rick from Utah, was chosen as the winner of this JB Challenge + Contest! His submission features his family, who was celebrating their first Christmas together in 5 years. As Rick put it, "That was a moment worth jumping." The complete story behind the jump and the original post can be viewed here. Current Favorite Jump:
A wonderful JumpBecause story: Jump Because... For a Cause!
In June 2010, JumpBecause hosted a Potluck-for-a-Cause fundraiser to raise money for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. People brought amazing food, made fun crafts, participated in a raffle, and listened to great local music... and of course JUMPED! Check out the highlights of our fundraiser on the "Causes" page.  Jump Because in MSU Alumni Magazine
Jump Because was interviewed for the Michigan State University Alumni Magazine (Winter 2010 issue, p. 15).
One of Jump Because's founders attended MSU as an undergraduate and we're all proud to see JB featured among other Spartan news!  Jump Because in
