Will Smith to bungee jump over the Grand Canyon.

Tomorrow, Today, actor Will Smith will celebrate his 50th birthday by bungee jumping from a helicopter at the Grand Canyon. The jump will take place over a smaller gorge on the Navajo Nation, specifically the Hualapai tribe, whose reservation borders the east rim of the national park. Grand Canyon spokeswoman Kari Cobb said Smith did not approach the park for the bungee jump, but it wouldn’t be allowed anyway. In 2010 the tribe also allowed illusionist Criss Angel to be shackled and locked inside a crate suspended over the edge of the Grand Canyon. Tribal board member Robert Bravo Jr. says these stunts had been a way to showcase to the tribe to the world.
