Extreme bicycling by Danny MacAskill on the rooftops of Las Palmas, Spain

Cyclist Danny MacAskill has performed a series of hair-raising stunts on the roofs of Las Palmas in Canary Islands in Spain. Not only does he jump from roof to roof on his bicycle but he also balances on narrow walls that protect terraces from the sun and wind.
Fortunately, we can view a beautifully filmed video of the extreme cyclist’s stunts in Spain. MacAskill wore a GoPro action camera on his helmet, camera crew was filming, and it looks like a drone was used for filming as well.
