WORLD'S FIRST: Jumping off a HOT-AIR-BALLOON with a BIKE 🎈🚀

🚴 World’s First: Riding a Mountain Bike on a Flying Hot Air Balloon… then Jumping Off! 🎈🪂 After more than two years of preparation, it’s finally here. After setting my Guinness World Record at 272 km/h (169 mph) on a standard bicycle in 2022, this is my biggest mountain bike project yet—and a true World’s First. I became the first person ever to ride a mountain bike on top of a flying hot air balloon over 1,000 meters (3,280 ft) above the ground before skydiving safely back to Earth with a parachute. This MTB stunt combines mountain biking, skydiving, and extreme sports in a way that has never been attempted before. From finding a country where the project was legally possible to developing a custom bike parachute and planning every safety detail, this challenge took more than two years to bring to life. ❤️ A Huge Thank You to Everyone Who Made This Project Possible! This World’s First would never have happened without the incredible support of our partners, crew, and everyone who believed in this vision.
