Sports drink manufacturer, Red Bull is known to sponsor and film the most extreme sports. But this heart-stopping video capturing a human link created between two flying aircraft has to be one of their best ones yet.

Paul Steiner, one of the members of the Red Bull Skydive team, performed this amazing stunt 2,100 meters above the mountains in Styria, Austria. As you will see in the video, he first climbs out of the gliders cockpit, snakes his way along the wing, then somersaults onto the wing of a second glider, while both are flying!

And that's not all - He then holds the tail fin and forms a human chain between the two, before finally leaping off and parachuting safely to the ground! Definitely not a stunt for the faint of heart!

                      Must have been scary to be that high off the ground and lucky the helicopter's blade didn't cut his head off
