Acrobat walks tightrope between hot air balloons - VIDEO

A Chinese acrobat walks across a thin metal wire strung between two hot air balloons floating 100 feet off the ground.

Acrobat Saimaiti Aishan encountered some problems in crossing between the two balloons, sitting down halfway across when he had problems with his balancing pole.

Dawa Zi, also know as high-wire, is a traditional acrobatic performance of Uygur Chinese and Mr Aishan is a seventh-generation Dawa Zi.

He is preparing to repeat the crossing at a height of 650 feet (200 metres) to claim his fourth Guinness World Record.
