A thrill-seeker known for his death defying antics has hurled himself off the spinning blades of a giant wind turbine hundreds of feet in the air.
George King is no stranger to outrageous stunts, having racked up more than 200 jumps.
He previously free climbed The Shard in London and threw himself from the Lotte World Tower in Seoul, the sixth tallest building on the planet.

Now the 26-year-old daredevil has taken things even further by scaling a 140 metre (460ft) wind turbine, tiptoeing along its rotating blades and then parachuting off into the sky.
“Inside the tube it’s cramped, dark and mechanical: no horizon, just metal and noise,” George told What’s The Jam.
“The moment you open that hatch and step outside, it’s the complete opposite: blinding white turbine, blue sky above, green fields below.
“The contrast is overwhelming.”
Once on top, he clipped on his parachute and waited for the perfect moment to sprint along the giant blade.

Balancing on the narrow surface as it moved beneath him, he pushed on with the stunt.
The daredevil, dubbed “the shard climber”, added: “Running along the blade, every pixel of light feels amplified.
“The further out you go, the more the blade starts to wobble and bounce.

“By the time you reach the tip you’re just a pinprick in the sky, completely exposed.
“I took one look to my right, took in the view, and jumped.”
George floated safely to the ground with no injuries.
He first shot to global fame in 2019 after illegally scaling The Shard, earning a six month prison sentence.
Since then he has travelled the world clambering up and leaping from some of its tallest buildings.
George’s wind turbine blade stunt took place in the German countryside.
