The Giant Jump will launch the UK's Science Year on September 7. Science Year aims to raise awareness of science for ten to 19-year-olds.
The Giant Jump involves schoolchildren jumping up and down for one minute, and the results will be monitored on seismometers and sensing equipment. It will go straight into The Guinness Book of Records as 'the greatest simultaneous jump in history'.
