An 18-year-old daredevil broke the world record for the longest blindfolded slackline walk.

Pablo Signoret pulled off the feat over a canyon in Southwest China.

The Frenchman secured the Guinness World Record with a blindfolded walk of over 423 meters or about a quarter of a mile.

It took him about 25 minutes.

Other slackliners were also on hand to attempt the walk.

Slacklining is similar to tightrope walking, but the line is significantly less tensioned. This creates a bouncier sensation, similar to a trampoline.
