This is the terrifying moment a cyclist pedalled along a narrow mountain road with deadly drops of several thousand feet on either side.
The daredevil made his way along the crumbly route leading down from the summit of an Austrian mountain with dramatic views of the valley below on either side.
He slowly cycled along the ridge taking care to avoid slipping off the route, which at points was made up of nothing more than loose stones.

Many dangerous mountainous routes are actively sought after by cyclists looking for a challenge.
Last year James Burroughs and friends Nate and Roman were filmed on drone following the state’s famous White Line Trail in Sedona, Arizona.
The thrill-seekers, aged between 26 and 42, had been going to the stunning location every week for two years and decided to film their experiences.
They were welcomed by a cheering crowd after completing the terrifying trail.
Mr Burroughs, 31, said: ‘It was the first time for all of us so we weren’t exactly sure what to expect.’
