So I found bridge for hanging. I can't choose the rope. Is 10mm static rope for climbing ok? 10 meters of drop boost momentum? have I to oil the rope?
Or just jump from the bridge (about 90m)?

The further you drop, the greater the shock absorbed by the rope. Your weight figures into this too. That is why ropes have working and tensile strength. A chart is attached.
