Video: Daredevil records himself walking across a metal beam 919 feet up in the air

If you have vertigo then this video definitely isn't for you...

If you have vertigo then this video definitely isn’t for you…

We always had the ambition to scale the highest peaks possible as nippers.

It usually resulted in our mam having a mild heart attack after seeing us hanging from the top of the stairs or swinging from the branches of the tree in our back garden.

We won’t lie, falls and tears usually followed but it still hasn’t quenched our sense of adventure.

Our wild escapades pale in comparison though to Flaviu Cernescu who attached a GoPro camera to his head and captured his climb up a 919-foot chimney in Pitesti, Romania, which is one of the tallest structures in the entire country.

The whole climb is enthralling but it really gets interesting around the 4:00 mark as he does his best ‘Man On Wire’ impression.
