This daredevil jumped into a waterfall in Wainui Bay, New Zealand, from a height of over 100 feet.

Jesse St. Louis filmed himself using a GoPro attached to his head, capturing his daring descent into the waterfall.

His wife Samantha was also recording from a different angle to show the sheer height of her partner's jump.

Jesse said: "This cliff jump was my first (and last) 100+ footer and was also a blind gap, precision jump with a horrible, sloped, crumbling takeoff point. I am extremely lucky that I cleared the 15-foot gap!

"This jump had never been done before and will likely not be repeated. I would absolutely NOT RECOMMEND DOING THIS!

"I am just sharing my close-call experience. The impact of the water caused me to lose one of my shoes and because I was slow to bring my left arm to my side, the impact also caused my left pec to tear.

"My adrenaline was so jacked, though, that I didn't notice the injury till several months later."
