Russian Dude Does A Backflip On Top Of The Princess Tower [Video]

Heights, backflips and fresh air is the best concoction for a faux adrenaline rush brought to you by a set of crazy Russians.

Russians, hey.

In a recent stint, OlegCricket, a daredevil master who regularly posts videos of his risky stunts at unbelievable heights, did a backflip on the world’s second highest residential construction. The Princess Tower is 414m heigh – 101 stories and calls Dubai home.

OlegCricket, whose real name is Oleg Sherstyachenko, is just 24 and thrives on what he does:

At the time of shooting I felt fine. I was not thinking about fear or any other emotions – there was no time. Most people react – and will react – negatively, but they don’t understand the other side of my thinking. They are taught that it’s scary, and something people are accustomed to, but it’s a different philosophy to know what I’m doing.

Here are a few of his other stunts.

What a way to feel alive.
