in Kusma  is  at the  highest
            altitude  in  Nepal  and the
            second highest in the world.

            Before playing such games,
            we need to be careful about
            injuries  in  the  legs ,  and
            trunk, fractures of bones and,
            the  diseases  like  epilepsy.
            As  blood  pressure  highly
            increases  during this  game,
            people with high blood pressure and heart problems and pregnant
            women should not do bungee jumping.

            B.  Paragliding




























            Paragliding is an interesting game played in the air. The pilots should
            carry parachutes weighing about 15 kg and take off by running on
            the slope area at a high speed. We need the tools like a wing, ropes,
            harness, helmet, sunglass,  etc.  for this. Interested people weighing
            less than 100 kg are suitable for paragliding.  We must compulsorily
            wear a helmet during paragliding. We should also be careful whether
            the  wind is  in speed or  not and whether there are trees  or other
            obstructions or not in the flying area. We must manage a first aid box
