World champion in slackline walked the rope in Dubai at a height of 224 meters

Three-time world slackline champion Red Bull stuntman Jaan Roose walked a 100-meter rope at a height of 224 meters between the Emirates Towers in Dubai. This was reported by Gulf News on January 11.

After the passage, Estonian Rooz said that he celebrated his birthday on that day, turning 33 years old.

"I am happy to be here on the ground. It's much better to stand on a stable surface than on a sling that is only as thick as a finger," Rooz said at the Dubai Content for Good Summit, which focuses on the economics of content creators.

The stuntman added that the difficulty of his stunt was that the Emirates Towers are at different heights even though they look the same.

Earlier, on September 15, 2024, in the Turkish city of Istanbul, Estonian athlete and three-time world champion in stunting Jaan Roose crossed the Bosphorus Strait on a stretched rope. According to the publication, the length of the crossing was more than 1 thousand meters, and the height - 165 meters. The athlete spent about 47 minutes on his way.
