Watch: A Dubai Man Flies Off Carried By Balloons

Weekends in Dubai can be pretty great. With all the brunches, spectacular views and outdoor activities, it’s easy to have fun days off. But your weekend was probably not as epic as this!

In a promotional video stunt by Emaar Dubai, a man can be seen sitting on a chair attached to a balloons cluster and then whisked away high up into the air.



That looks extremely fun, especially with that amazing view of the Dubai skyline! However, keep in mind these are professionals and we caution against anyone trying this on their own. It might have been easy to fly up, but we’re not so sure of the landing…

Other professional stunts

Jetman

There are several stunts by the daring Jetman duo to marvel at. This most recent one shows one of them doing a mid-air stunt close to a private jet. One of their most popular stunts was flying alongside an Emirates A380, the world’s largest passenger aircraft.

Dream Jump

Ever wondered what it would be like to BASE jump off of the world’s second highest residential building? Alongside Dubai Film, SkydiveDubai and XDubai partnered with DreamJump to make that a reality for some. Scary or exciting? You be the judge.

Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol

We can’t help but mention this one! It’s difficult not to be proud seeing Dubai’s tallest building in the world being featured in the movie. The stunt was actually performed by Tom Cruise, not a stunt double. He might be wearing a harness, but it’s still terrifying!
