He’s definitely not acrophobic

The dictionary defines the word “daredevil” as someone who is “reckless and daring.” And that, says the Association of American Citizens [AMAC], describes Brazilian tightrope walker Rafael Zugno Bridi. His latest achievement – a not-so-casual stroll on a cable between two hot air balloons 6,236 feet in the air. The International Slackline Association verified the feat and, as a result, Rafael now has the distinction of being a Guinness World Record holder. Is there anyone out there who might want to try taking that award from him?
