Extreme inline skater Taig Khris jumped off the Eiffel Tower in Paris for setting a new freefall record.
Thousands of tourists and locals gathered at the French landmark over the weekend to witness the extreme rollerblader set the new world freefall record of 12.5 metres (41 feet).
The Frenchman threw himself from the bottom section of the tower dropping 10m before landing on a 30m-high ramp.
“I’ve never had such a strong adrenaline rush,” he told news agency AFP after the jump, in which he beat the 8.53-metre record set by American Danny Way.

That's a bunch of dookey.

Homeboy jumped off of an elevated platform attached to the ramp in front of the Eiffel Tower. Your title and description of the post is inaccurate and misleading.

Shame on you.
