Thrill-seeker Laso Schaller leaped from a 58.8-metre waterfall, almost 2-metres higher than the Leaning Tower of Pisa, to set a new world record for the highest cliff jump. The Brazil-born 27-year-old Swiss daredevil spent three-and-a-half seconds in free-fall and entered the water at the speed of 123-kmph. Laso is famous for death-defying feats, having previously jumped off a 35-meter cliff.
