Insanely Skilled Slackliner Breaks World Record

There's no doubt about it — Friedi Kühne has got skills when it comes to slacklining. First, he was highlining way up high between two power towers in Armenia. He even balanced on one leg while walking across it! Next, in Russia, Friedi did another impressive highlining stunt. He broke the world record for the longest distance walked on a slackline while blindfolded. We'd barely be able to walk blindfolded on flat land without bumping into stuff or falling over, so this is seriously impressive! View Now
