This is the moment a thrill-seeker crossed the famous 'danger bridge' in Pakistan.

Salman Ali Khan carefully stepped on the narrow slats of the Hussaini Hanging Bridge to avoid falling through.

Gravelly paths and deep water from Borith Lake could be seen 50ft below, between the large gaps in the planks.

He eventually reached the other end of the makeshift cable and wood bridge safely.

Salman said: 'It's scary at first but when you go through it but it's a nice and soothing feeling. As a resident here, whenever I'm sad or angry I just walk over the hanging bridge and my mood lightens somehow.'

Situated in Pakistan's Upper Hunza region, the Hussaini Hanging Bridge is 660ft long and has roughly 472 wooden planks. Despite its apparent precarity, the bridge is relatively safe and has become a popular attraction for thrill-seekers around the world.
