This heart-stopping footage shows a daredevil walking along a highline 300ft in the air.
Skylar Henderson, 25, stumbled his way into highlining in 2019 after his brother invited him along to ‘hang out’ with his friends.
He is now hooked and captured his latest thrilling stunt on a highline across a bay near San Francisco.
Skylar, a personal trainer from Los Angeles, said: "I know it looks and sounds insane, but highlining IS safe."
"We work with a concept of redundancy, meaning that we have two of absolutely everything just in case. There’s always a backup."
"I’m attached to the webbing by a harness and we have two webs so that if one gives out, the other will tighten and I’ll be safe."
"It’s also a team sport - it takes six to eight people to rig a highline and we’re all watching out and checking to see if we’re doing things right."
