This is the moment a US teen flings a basketball from a PLANE into a moving basketball HOOP on a quadbike -- 1,000 feet below.

Isaiah LeDuc-Pierce threw the basketball down to his friends Nick Vignery and Corbin Monzon, who were riding a quad bike, with a basketball hoop attached.

The group of 19-year-old friends from Clyde, Kansas, USA, came up with the daring stunt whilst discussing their summer plans.

Construction worker Isaiah was inspired by agricultural pilot Wyatt Trost, who owns a plane and was at the controls during the stunt.

Isaiah said: “Wyatt’s had the plane for a few years. We were at his farm and just thought of doing the trick one day.

“On May 15th we decided to just do it for fun to see if we could actually do it - and we did! We flew the plane about 30ft up and just kept trying."

Isaiah said it took about two days to plan the stunt and 18 tries in total on the day they made it.

Although it’s not confirmed that the trick shot broke any records, the group is sure it would have if they had invited someone official to watch.
