Three students in Hong Kong have posted a stomach-churning selfie taken from the very top of a skyscraper.
Billed as "World's scariest selfie" on You Tube, the video shows Daniel Lau and two friends atop a towering skyscraper eating a banana before climbing back down to the ground.
According to its uploader Frank Wu, Lau used a "selfie stick" to get the "dizzying footage of a rooftopping adventure 346m (1,135 feet) above the streets of Hong Kong".
The video has been seen by over 160,000 people so far, media reports said.
"Lau, fellow photographer Andrew Tso and A.S. are seen in the video snacking while perched dangerously on the spire of The Centre skyscraper, Hong Kong's fifth-tallest skyscraper," read the video's description on YouTube.
