Gong Jun and Chen Xingxu were seen filming the second season of Tencent's travel variety show Wow The World in Auckland, New Zealand, today (Feb 24), and fans gathered to watch them do a SkyJump at the Auckland Sky Tower.
According to the attraction's website, the 53rd level of the tower was closed in the afternoon today for a private event. Participants are wired up, falling "very fast at speeds of up to 85kph for around 11 seconds before coming to a smooth landing", said the site.
In videos posted on Xiaohongshu, Gong Jun, 33, and Xingxu, 29, descended from 192 metres high clad in suits, with the latter seen walking down the steps from the landing platform in style and calmly waving at the swarm of fans.

Gong Jun was all smiles hearing fans screaming and complimenting him.
Besides the excitement from the thrill, Gong Jun just looks unfazed and still looking so good right after bungee jumping??
I guess, he IS also well known for being extremely calm and emotionally stable after all 😅
