Even the most adventurous of thrill seekers will think twice before attempting this jaw-dropping ride.\u00a0<\/p>\n
This is the stomach-churning moment a man made a staggering 1,100ft drop from the top of the\u00a0Aizhai suspension bridge in China, the thirteenth highest bridge in the world.<\/p>\n
In a video posted to Instagram, the scene unfolds with an anonymous daredevil harnessed to a flimsy chair-like object, as it hovers high above green land and a busy freeway.<\/p>\n
The ride, which has since been dubbed ‘the craziest ride ever’ is gently lowered slowly but surely, giving the allusion that all is calm.<\/p>\n
However, at the very last moment, the man is released from mid air and plunged into the unknown as we watch him swing through the air with intense speed.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This is the stomach-churning moment a man (pictured) made a staggering 1,100ft drop from the top of the Aizhai suspension bridge in China\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
And just as as we’re at the edge of our seats, aching to see what’s ahead, the sound of a bell signals the beginning of the spine-chilling drop<\/p>\n
The moment was apparently too much for some viewers to stomach, with one person claiming they had an instant ‘anxiety attack’.<\/p>\n
Moments before the big plunge, the man can be seen muttering to himself, perhaps in a bid to coax himself into the crazy act.<\/p>\n
An eager crowd speedily gathers around the bridge to capture the moment, while some even took hold of their phones to record it.<\/p>\n
People can be heard chanting, adding to the already frightening suspense. Meanwhile the unknown man remains stoic, giving absolutely no hint as to what’s going through his mind.<\/p>\n

He spirals downwards before the ride sends him in another direction, as viewers see him swing across masses of greenland, and even a busy motorway.<\/p>\n
The\u00a0 video has since garnered 229,000 likes and attracted over 3000 comments.<\/p>\n
Clearly in disbelief at the ride, one person wrote: ‘Doesn’t look very secure. Dead drop at risk. No thank you, I will pass’.<\/p>\n

Another joked: ‘Bet he is glad that he wore the dark trousers that day’.\u00a0<\/p>\n
‘The anxiety attack I had watching it’ added another.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, one person commented: ‘As it is said, there is a very thin line between the braveness and stupidness’.<\/p>\n
The Aizhai Bridge is a suspension bridge on the Baotou\u2013Maoming Expressway near Jishou, Hunan, in China.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The bridge was built as part of an expressway from southwest China’s Chongqing Municipality to Changsha, and is one of the world’s longest tunnel-to-tunnel bridges.<\/p>\n
The main span of the bridge extends 3,760 ft and retains a horrifying height of 1,102 ft.<\/p>\n
It is the thirteenth-highest bridge in the world and the world’s nineteenth-longest suspension bridge.<\/p>\n
