Backflipping The 377ft Moscow Bridge
Backflipping The 377ft Moscow Bridge
Freeclimber James Kingston sees things differently from most people. That’s because he can usually be found hundreds of feet in the air dangling off cranes and buildings with one hand.
Kingston’s antics shot him to fame after Channel 4 showed the talented Brit casually checking his palms for dirt while dangling off a 250 ft crane in Southampton.
Although this stunt became the iconic image for the programme, it was actually towards the end of the documentary that James really demonstrated how thin the line between genius and madness is.
Kingston travelled to the Ukraine to train with another equally insane freeclimber, Mustang Wanted. Together the pair decided to scale the Moscow Bridge in Kiev in what can only have been a race to see who could get dragged off to an asylum first.
The pair attempted to one up each other by first, hanging over the railing of the bridge and then backflipping on a ledge 377ft above the Dnieper River.
This is almost definitely a once in a lifetime trick and probably the most terrifying we’ve ever seen.
