Defying gravity: thrill-seekers brave slackline in the French Alps

Описание

Adventure-seekers carefully make their way across a slackline set up hundreds of meters above the French Alps. Twenty people walked across the 800-meter-long line hanging 300 meters above ground to enjoy the thrill.

The rules for this new sport are being drawn up by municipal authorities following a request from the participants.
