Bungee Jump accident in rehearsals according to BBC, in 1986
Another hit was the Late Late Breakfast Show, begun in 1981. Five years into the programme tragedy struck when Michael Lush, who had volunteered to do a bungee jump on the show, was killed while rehearsing the stunt.
The incident devastated Edmonds and during a period of reflection he considered quitting TV.
