From the Korea Times:
A bungee-jumper was killed in a fall in Naju, South Jeolla Province, Tuesday, after the cord connecting him to the bungee jumping structure failed.
The 36-year-old man jumped from the 37-meter structure at an amusement park but the cord did not sustain his weight and broke. He hit the ground after missing a safety air mattress.
He sustained severe external and internal wounds to his head and was pronounced dead upon arrival at a nearby hospital.
The picture above is from this Korean-language article in the Seoul Shinmun. That article mentions what the KT piece doesn't, that the accident took place at the Jungheung Gold Spa & Resort, one of the three waterparks in Jeollanam-do.
