THRILL-seekers can apply to take part in a charity bungee jump at Gloucester Green.
Oxford University's Raising and Giving (RAG) society is offering more than 100 people the chance to jump from a 175ft crane on Sunday, May 19.
The challenge, called The Leap, costs £45, with each participant expected to raise £100 in sponsorship.
All proceeds will go to RAG's elected charities, which this year are The Porch, Aspire, Into University and Education Partnerships Africa.

Ben Bilefield, RAG challenges officer, said: ‘Why travel to an exotic location on your gap year to do a bungee jump when you can do it in the centre of Oxford and get an incredible view of Oxfordshire?
"This is a once in a lifetime chance to tick something off the bucket list and raise money for some of our incredible elected charities."
A street food market will be in Gloucester Green on the day, with jumpers allocated timed slots from 10.30am onwards.
Prizes will be up for grabs for accolades such as top fundraiser and best costume.
