1 Comment  "I shot this photo almost 2 years ago. A Christian jumper shared the good news with a few hundred folks who came out to see him jump under very poor conditions. He nailed every jump. I believe his name was Brad Bennett. He had the crowd pumped with his crazy stunts." - Royce, photographer    "We jump for muddy water and extreme swimming!" - Chrisie, Ken, and Caroline  "We jump because we are doing a European Tour to know our neighbors! Leafar Tour is here and éole one here." -Raphael   "I jump because I know that its the only way to give gravity a run for its money!" -Eugene  "I jump because of First Fridays! I jump for creative people who set up funky light displays in the street!" - Paula    "We saw an awesome bench in Yellowstone after a hike to the falls and decided to celebrate by getting airborne." - M, D, R, Z, I, and E  "I jump because Uncle Jesse just looked so cute here in the opening credits of 'Full House'." - Jenny  "I jump for leaping over the fence during feeding time and making up n'languages!" -Paul  “I jump because... I’ve lived in London for 6 years and I finally feel like a Londoner!” -Carlo | 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
