Sun Xi Zhong Climbs Stairs with Head

Acrobat Sun Xi Zhong stars in a Japanese program in order to break the World Record for most steps traveled using only his head.  This truly is something you must see to believe.  It is extremely hard to simply balance on your head, much less than jumping and climbing steps on your head.  Sun Xi Zhong must keep total control over every body motion as he moves his way up.  This feat is extremely risky and missing a step by an inch could cause him to break his neck.

Street Violinist Bryson Andres

Bryson Andres is an excellent violinist.  It is amazing to see great talent on the streets doing what they love.  You can tell that Andres puts his heart into his music which is one vital component that many musicians may lack.  Not to mention the electric violin and Secrets by One Republic combination which is just awesome.

Cliff Jumping

Cliff Jumping is a crazy, adrenaline pumping sport.  It is incredibly dangerous as one wrong step or jump could lead you plummeting to your death.  Here are just a few of my favorite risk takers doing what they love.

An extremely risky point of view jump at Tar Creek.

Speed Climbing

Spiderman may not exist, but these guys are getting pretty close.  Zhong Qixin sets the new world record for speed climbing on this 15 meter course at 6.26 seconds.  It almost seems like he is flying up that wall rather than scaling.  The time and dedication it would take to be able to perform at this speed is almost unimaginable.
