please don’t try this at home welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’re counting
down our picks for the top ten dangerous
World Records she’s where starts to get
more difficult legs up getting to top
for this list we’ll be taking a look at
world records that are considered the
most dangerous due to their high stakes
and life-threatening nature
hang on to your seats because we’re
about to see some unreal achievements
that defy all safety regulations the
atmosphere here is a mixture of
anticipation and tension number 10
oldest twin Walker mi Tri wing-walking
I’m here very popular down some good
luck when walking is a fairly
self-explanatory extreme sport it
involves a performer pulling off
acrobatic stunts atop the wings of an
airplane all while it’s soaring through
the sky it should go without saying that
this is a very risky endeavor to even
attempt to pull off but that didn’t stop
UK resident thomas lackey from giving it
a go once understood on the top once I’m
there I feel really good it’s generally
just going and I’ll feel almost good as
anybody first attempted when walking at
the age of 80 Lackey went on to break
the record is the oldest person to pull
off the daring feat multiple times not
wanting to lose his top spot to anyone
else
thomas cemented himself as the bravest
old-timer on the face of the earth by
win walking again at age 93 tom i’m very
pleased to say that the new world record
congratulations number nine most spears
caught from a speargun underwater in one
minute
thrill-seeker ashrita Furman is no
stranger to pulling off unbelievable
accomplishments as he holds upwards of
200 Guinness World Records however his
underwater spear catching trick has been
seen as his most deadly venture yet all
submerged underwater a grand total of 14
Spears were fired at Furman as he wowed
the world by catching them all
consecutively using only one hand the
Spears were 60 centimeters in length and
fired from a spear gun at a range of 2
meters away so just one wrong move and
Furman would have had some pretty big
holes in his hands the kicker is that he
hurt himself while practicing the stunt
yet wanted to go through with it anyway
that takes serious mojo I don’t feel
like there’s any one thing that’s gonna
give me satisfaction like that one I
have to do and I’ll be satisfied I
always want to be you know transcending
always going after a new goal number
eight twin towers walk it was certainly
not a dream anymore it was tangible
don’t look down
in 1974 French highwire artist Philip
thatsee summoned the courage to perform
his most daring tightrope act yet
without any authorization or permission
to set up his stunt because seriously
who would give someone the okay to do
something like this
but II walked across a cable suspended
over 1,300 feet in the air between the
two towers of New York’s World Trade
Center why did you do this
that’s the sound of why this morning
there was nobody just because the point
when I see beautiful place to put my
wire I cannot resist just making it
across from one building to the other
wasn’t enough for him however as his
entire performance lasted 45 minutes
with p’tee making eight trips and
performing a dancing act for the
spectators below
[Music]
his death-defying actions were the
inspiration for the 2015 filmed the walk
which starred Joseph gordon-levitt as
the fearless daredevil himself he’s
doing
number 7 highest pool dive yeah go for
it man jump off the high dive talk about
a horrible moment to belly flop lasso
Schaller summoned the guts to climb a
towering 200-foot high mountain ridge
along the swiss-italian border that’s
bad enough but then he leaped into the
air and came crashing down into the bed
of water below it may have been water
but keep in mind that Schaller traveled
down at an estimated speed of 76 miles
per hour that kind of velocity can make
even the calmest waters feel like bricks
on impact
[Music]
and it may as well abend bricks as
Schaller dislocated his hip due to the
force of his collision with the water we
could only guess that Schaller saw
french diver Olivier 5 cos 177 foot dive
and was majorly underwhelmed number 6
heaviest car balanced on the head that’s
why while working as a bricklayer John
Evans discovered that he had an uncanny
ability he could balance incredibly
heavy objects on the top of his head a
talent which she began to home after
several years of dedication to this
unique skill evans reached the peak of
his talent when he decided to balance a
car on his head for a grand total of 33
seconds in front of a live audience said
car weighed not one not two but three
hundred and fifty pounds sort of take
the engine out of a mini and false
wheels on him and make it look like a
mini yeah Oh take note with his
formidable strength and expert
concentration Evans somehow managed to
make the whole situation look easy but
all it would take is one wrong move and
well he would have looked a whole lot
flatter the new Guinness World Record
Johnny number five highest recorded
blood-alcohol level ready to party
having a drink every now and then can be
good fun but like anything else
consuming alcohol should be a pastime
and joy in moderation
yeah then again two different men in
Poland have been recorded with blood
alcohol levels over 1 percent there’s
also the well-known case involving a 67
year old Bulgarian man who was rushed
into a hospital with an extremely high
0.9 one for blood alcohol content level
after being hit by an oncoming truck
by all accounts if the full force of a
truck didn’t kill this man on impact
then realistically speaking the amount
of alcohol in his system probably should
have doctors were so baffled by him
surviving this near-death experience
they proceeded to reevaluate him using
multiple machines believing that their
equipment must be faulty to show such
high numbers number 4 motorcycle bus
jumps you will be jumping over 13 bus
pulling off daring motorcycle bus jumps
has been a classic stuntman move for
decades some of the most noteworthy
examples of that feat were successfully
completed by legendary motorcyclist Evel
Knievel in the 1970s that’s such a large
part of our culture now he inspired all
that but they’ll never be another Evel
Knievel’s first attempt in 1975 saw him
jump over 13 parked buses only to break
his pelvis on the way down this didn’t
turn him off from the idea however as
just a few months later he gave it
another go this time adding an
additional bus for a grand total of 14
[Music]
knievel held on to his world record for
nearly 25 years before Bubba Blackwell
decided to up the ante by jumping 15
buses in 1999 but the jump goes well
number three highest freefall parachute
jump start the cameras and our guardian
angel will take care of you the phrase
the sky’s the limit is usually just an
expression but there are a few folks out
there who take this mentality quite
literally and too staggering new heights
Austrian skydiver Felix Baumgartner made
headlines around the world when he
jumped from a helium balloon floating
127 thousand feet above the earth and
careened down to the planet below at a
mind-blowing speed of 843 miles per hour
also making him the first human to break
the sound barrier without a vehicle Alan
Eustace must have felt that was child’s
play as he jumped from the even higher
height of 135,000 feet just two years
later
number two most motorcycles driven over
the body while lying on a bed of nails
Australian stunt performer Shane
Hultgren aka the space cowboy has never
been one to shy away from outrageous
acts like swallowing swords and juggling
chainsaws but those seem tame when
compared to his more unsettling
accomplishment of allowing motorcycles
to drive over him while he was lying on
top of a bed of nails his facial
expressions make it clear that not only
is he uncomfortable he’s in a great deal
of pain as those motorcycles use him as
a human bridge a total of 20 times
Hultgren stunt has inspired others to
give it a whirl over the years as well
but we gotta say kids don’t try this at
home
before we reveal our topic here are a
few honorable mentions
[Music]
number one most live rattlesnakes held
in mouth for 10 seconds nope nope nope
nope nope nope nope
Jackie Bibby has spent much of his life
with the slithering reptiles in question
earning him the title of the Texas snake
man he’s been bitten several times but
still insists on continuing his snake
team performances
[Music]
the passion he has for his art is
admired by his many fans but even the
most die-hard followers gasped when
Jackie decided to hold 13 live
rattlesnakes in his mouth at once
rattlesnakes you don’t bother them they
won’t bother you time seems to come to a
screeching halt as Bibby maintains firm
control over the snakes baby maybe well
practiced but these are still wild
animals and all it takes is one wrong
move for things to get real messy real
fast
worst-case scenario to drag me on that
bathtub around sites hanging all over
men I’m headed to the awesome do you
agree with our list what do you feel is
the most dangerous world record you will
never need if I sleep on turd on the
wing walk for more thrilling top 10s
