It’s not a bird. It’s not a plane. It’s not even Superman. It’s just some crazy guy who took swinging too seriously. [caption id=“attachment_2333240” align=“alignleft” width=“380”]
Swinging over the house. Screengrab from YouTube video[/caption] While us kids just wondered ‘mera number kab ayega’, queuing up for a go at the swing in the school playground,
Damien Walters
, who has a YouTube channel for exhibiting extreme stunts, swung on through to the other side of his house. In a crazy video on swing obsession, Walters swings on a ramp and clears his house in a somersault jump and lands safely on a mat on the other side. The jump seems outlandish and made of superhero stuff as Walters flies over his house, lands on the other side, and gets up casually as if it was all in a day’s work. Had the guy timed the jump wrong even by a whisker, he would have been the
pizza on Walter White’s roof.
The man deserves a medal. Watch the incredible video below. No need to spell it out, but, do not try this at home.
