Vidyut Jammwal tries yet another extreme sport and this time around it’s highlining! A recent video of the actor attempting it was shared by him on his social media handle and fans couldn’t stop appreciating him and his dedication of doing something so dangerous. Even his Commando co-star Adaa Khan commented on the video.
Highlining involves the counterintuitive act of walking on a line hundreds of feet above the ground on a one-inch rope that’s thinner than an average waist belt. Considering the danger of sports, it takes athleticism, balance, stamina and most importantly mental toughness to walk a long line. It is also a sport that is not for everyone and requires extreme caution and focus. The actor posted about it on his social media and also captioned it by making a reference to his upcoming film Crakk saying, “I’ve realised to be SANE you have to be a bit CRAKK!!” Appreciating his dedication, his Commando co-star Adaa Khan dropped a comment saying, “Main tumhaare pair choo leti lekin uske liye mujhe udna seekhna padega.”
Talking about highrise and his love for extreme sports, Vidyut shared, “Extreme sports are a great way for me to experience the connection between my mind and my body. Highlining is a sport that requires extreme focus and balance. Discovering what my physical and mental abilities are and how far I can go, is my greatest ambition in life.”
The King of Kalaripayattu spent time with some of the top highliners in between his shooting schedules and after wrapping up his shoot, and went on to walk one of the biggest highlines very few people in the world have attempted.
