A farmer climbs up a sugar palm tree using bare hands and feet.

Footage shows Sonthi Photia tying a knife around his waist with rubber before ascending up the 60ft-tall tree in Ang Thong, Thailand on June 1.

The agile local has perfected his harvesting technique and is the most sought-after worker in the region thanks to his fruit-picking skills.

Fearless farm hand Sonthi said: 'It's quicker to climb the tree than use machinery. When I am at the top I know what to collect.'
