In a surprising adventure, Islamic preacher Dr. Zakir Naik took a break from his usual religious talks to try something extreme — a 430-foot bungee jump in Bali, Indonesia. The jump happened on a high coastal platform overlooking the beach, and many of his fans were shocked but impressed.

Dr. Naik, 59, is famous for giving deep Islamic lectures and interfaith debates. But this time, he wore casual clothes and a bright red safety cord as he leapt from the edge, plunging toward the blue sea below. His team shared the thrilling video on his official X (formerly Twitter) account.

After landing safely, Dr. Naik posted more photos showing him smiling at the cliff edge. He was also seen trying an extreme water slide at the same beach resort, showing a different, more adventurous side of himself.

This isn't his first time doing such a thing. In Uganda (2024), he had earlier completed a 165-foot bungee jump, proving this new hobby may be part of his personal growth journey. His followers praised his courage and excitement for new experiences.

Event organizers said Dr. Naik personally asked for the Bali adventure to test his limits and promote self-confidence through physical challenges. "He wanted to step outside his comfort zone," one organizer noted.

In his own words, Dr. Naik wrote: "Life is a test of both mind and body." He remains in Indonesia through the weekend for lectures, outreach, and leisure activities.
