Incredible pictures have emerged from Saudi Arabia showing young adrenaline junkies driving their 4x4s on just two wheels.
The act of balancing the vehicle on two wheels is known as sidewall skiing, and it is seemingly a genuine past time in the desert kingdom.
Pictures taken of the stunt being performed show men hanging out of the windows of the moving cars and lying down in the road.
Sidewall skiing is achieved in one of two ways – by using a ramp to lift the car into position or turning sharply or at speed in a car with a high centre of gravity such as a 4×4.
Once the car is on two wheels, the driver must steer the vehicle to keep it upright and performers let air out of the tyres on the ground to help with the balance.
The first recorded sidewall skiing was in Denmark back in 1964, and since then, it has been used in a number of movies including Knight Rider, The Dukes of Hazzard, Transformers and in two James Bond films.
