Highlining Between Hot Air Balloons

(vimeo link)

The Skyliners are a group of “flying Frenchies” who participate in highlining, basejumping, mountainering, and other utterly dangerous pursuits to get that adrenaline fix. Filmmaker Seb Montaz dreamed up a stunt for them like no other. Balloonists from Globus Kontiki took them up in two hot air balloons and the thrill-seekers strung a highline between the two -and then went out on it like it's just another tightrope walk. Will they make it from one balloon to the other? Watch and see. Yes, they are wearing parachutes. I couldn’t stand to watch otherwise. -via Laughing Squid
