Швейцарський шибайголова на канаті

A Swiss daredevil’s climbed the highest mountain in Germany in an unusual way…

He scaled the 3000-metre peak using a cable car wire as a tightrope.

Freddy Nock gained nearly 350 metres in altitude as he walked the kilometre-long route without a balancing pole or a safety harness.

The stuntman’s trying to break seven world records in a week, raising money for charity in the process.

Швейцарський шибайголова піднявся на найвищу гору у Німеччині незвичним способом.

Він здійнявся на 3000-метровий пік, використовуючи як линву кабель підйомника.

Фредді Нок піднявся на 350 метрів над рівнем моря, проходячи маршрут довжиною кілометр без палиці для балансу та страховки.

Каскадер намагається побити 7 світових рекордів за тиждень, збираючи у процесі гроші на благодійність.
