Watch the nail-biting moment a daredevil skydiver leapt from a hot air balloon – without a parachute.

Fearless stuntman Antti Pendikainen from Finland took on the incredibly brave – or stupid – challenge in southern Finland, 4,000 metres above the ground.

The death-defying stunt took place high above the clouds, as Antti recklessly threw his parachute over the side of the balloon before jumping out himself, only to be caught midair by a member of his crew.

We’re happy to report, Antti made it safely back to the ground!
