"I jump because I found the love of my life! My boyfriend and I traveled to Rio de Janeiro, the city he grew up in, to celebrate his 30th birthday with his family. On our last full day, we hiked to Morro dois Irmaos with some friends and enjoyed the amazing view of Rio de Janeiro!" -Suzanne Morro dois Irmaos, Brazil Add Comment  "I jump because I wanted to be David Bowie in the labyrinth." -Isaac Saint Polo, Brazil  "My friend Jorge jumped because is happy in Hop Hary Park" - Márcio  "The pic of my son VG, was actually taken by my 13 years old daughter Nina, during their last vacations in Brazil. They saw some guys jumping from this cliff (10 meters high) and he sad he could do it too, so he did." -Robson, from Paris  "We jump because it's a wonderful day, for the joy of jumping, and to celebrate freedom!" - Mirian and friends  "Gustavo was jumping because he loves the geology classes at the beach (I do too)!"

 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 was interviewed for the Michigan State University Alumni Magazine (Winter 2010 issue, p. 15).
