Brian Grubb has reportedly become the first person in the world to combine drone wakeskating and base jumping, descending nearly 300m (984ft).
Base jumping involves jumping from a fixed point – such as a building, bridge or clifftop – and using a parachute to descend to the ground. A wakeskate is used like a skateboard, without bindings.
Grubb started his journey on top of a sky bridge at a Dubai resort’s infinity pool.
He began by wakeskating 94m (308ft) across the rooftop pool, before leaping over the pool‘s edge into a 77-storey base jump.
