These nail-biting snaps of two boys s teetering on the edge of a dangerously high bridge to take a selfie will make your stomach churn.

Fearless Pavel Smirnov, from Istanbul, Turkey, climbed to the top of the Yavuz Sultan Selim Bridge – the tallest building in Turkey, and the second tallest bridge in the world.

Pavel and his pal dangled precariously over the edge of the 350m high bridge, looking like they were on the edge of the world as they sat high above the clouds.

The duo happily risked their lives as they scaled dizzying heights to reach the top of the bridge – all so they could snap the ultimate selfie.
