Was it a bird? Was it a plane? No, it was Liberal Democrat leader Ed Davey doing a bungee jump at a football ground in Eastbourne to kick off the last week of the general election campaign. That same day, Davey, 58, also did a Zumba class, then clung on to an inflatable rubber ring for dear life as it got dragged behind a speedboat.
From leaping off his paddleboard in Lake Windermere to riding a rollercoaster and teacups at Thorpe Park, barely a day has gone by this summer without the Lib Dem leader doing something outlandish for the cameras in the hope of media attention.
