Dad holding toddler jumps to fall 60 meters
    2018-03-27  08:53    Shenzhen Daily

AN Instagram video showing a father complete a bungee swing jump while holding his 2-year-old daughter is the subject of serious flak online.

In the footage, Redha Rozlan, a Malaysian reality star, is shown standing on a bridge in Kuala Kuba Bharu.

He pats his 2-year-old daughter’s back reassuringly as a man yells, “Three … two … one.”

Suddenly, without warning, the pair is pulled backwards off the bridge, and the little girl, called Mecca Mikaela, clasps onto her father’s shoulders instinctively as they drop 196 feet (about 60 meters) into the gorge below.

It’s enough to turn an adult’s legs to jelly — let alone a small child.

While Mikaela’s father argues she was wearing a safety harness and correct “gear,” she was shown completing the jump without a helmet.

In response to a torrent of abuse, Rozlan was forced to defend his actions.

“Chill, guys,” he wrote. “Don’t try with your kids if your kids [are] not ready for this.”

He explained that Mikaela was not coerced into the act and that she enjoyed it so much, she actually wanted to go again.

However, a child rights lawyer, Goh Siu Lin, said the child’s parents had “lacked proper parental judgment” by letting her complete such an act.

Free Malaysia Today reports that the man and company can be charged for endangering the youngster’s life.
