Russian daredevils scale world's second tallest building in terrifying stunt

Two Russian daredevils scaled the second highest building in the world with no safety harnesses — and caught it all on camera to share with the world.

Vadim Makhorov and Vitaliy Raskalov sneaked into the still under-construction Shanghai Tower and scaled the mind-boggling heights without a moment’s hesitation.

From the looks of things the hooded duo are made of sterner stuff than most — with the mere sight of the heights they reached enough to send a shiver down your spine.

The eerie view from atop the skyscraper shows other colossal buildings dwarfed from their vantage point and shrouded in a thick fog.

Construction on the mammoth tower is due to be completed later this year when and will stand at a total height of 838m (2073ft).

It’s not the Russian thrill-seekers first spectacular video, or their first time scaling a tower as you can see below.

Their YouTube and Vimeo channels are full of interesting videos including this gorgeous Siberian timelapse.
