Flying high - is this the world's largest rope swing?




This is one daredevil who's living the high life. Devin Graham claims that this is the world’s largest rope swing. The footage shows Mr Graham standing on top of a cliff in the Moab desert in Utah, US, before running off it and plunging 45m down on the “epic” rope swing.

He then swings wildly from side-to-side under the rock formation - called the Corona Arch, the momentum pushing him on at dizzying speeds. Shaped like an archway, he comes very close to the rock at times while he swoops around it. His friends also take turns on the swing.

The swing is connected to the rock with five anchors. Mr Graham, a photography director from Salt Lake City, filmed the stunt over two days.
