The disturbing footage shows the man in a lime green t-shirt and black basketball shorts hesitating on the sidelines and looking back at the camera before attempting the stunt.
A woman comes into view enjoying the spectacular view just meters away from the man who runs to the edge before grabbing the pole and jumping.
The man jumps the railing one leg at a time before landing on his feet.
Although he hits the ground upright, he falls backwards and stumbles sideways down the cliff towards the sheer cliff face.
The recording woman lets out a scream in a different language as the man slides to the edge before he can stop.

“As a child, I always wondered how people fall into such chasms. I never thought that was the reason,” shared a top commenter.
“Should have worn his brown pants,” one person wrote.
“Immediate penalty of $10,000 for crossing that fence.” “That’ll make fools think,” suggested another.
‘Wow. “People are really fucking stupid,” added one.
“Natural selection seems to have cleared the day pretty much,” shared another.
