Cristina Amaro Priego became fearful in the final moments leading up to her plunge.
In a video of the incident, which has over four million views, the woman can be seen slowly moving to the other side of the railing.

The bungee instructor holds onto her as she screws up her face in terror.
Cristina then repeatedly says “no” and makes it clear that she has changed her mind and does not want to go ahead with the jump.
For the duration, the man speaks to her and tries to reassure her, placing a selfie stick in her hand so that she can catch the moment on video.
The instructor puts both of her hands in front of her and holds onto her with his arms as she continues to scream.
He then pushes her forward, letting her go as Cristina sets off on her bungee jump.

The video, which was shared last month, was filmed in the municipality of Aznalcóllar, near Seville, Spain.
Since the video has been shared, it has generated backlash from viewers, as reported by What’s The Jam.
Many social media users criticised the instructor’s decision to push Cristina.
Some received the clip with more of a lighthearted tone, with Cristina initially laughing by writing in the caption: “I was told I won the year’s screaming award.”
One person fumed: “She said no, why did he push her?”
Gaia added: “She could have had a heart attack while falling, it’s dangerous.”
“In truth, it is good, because the more you think about it the less you feel like throwing yourself away,” said a third viewer.
Someone else joked: “The guy enjoys his job, it’s spectacular.”
“If she regrets it and doesn’t want to… why force her,” questioned Lucia.
