One Step Away from Cloud Nine
Why take a leisurely walk when you can balance on a rope in the sky? High above Rio de Janeiro, this fearless slackliner strides across Corcovado Mountain, with Christ the Redeemer serving as a silent (and probably impressed) spectator. This drone shot, perfectly timed at sunset, captures the incredible contrast between the adventurer’s daring feat and the sprawling city below.
With only air beneath him and Rio’s iconic skyline as the backdrop, he transforms tightrope walking into a dramatic blend of art and adrenaline. It’s the kind of view most of us would admire from the safety of a lookout—but not this guy. He’s living on the edge, quite literally!
