Those who have a deep-seeded fear of heights might want to avert their eyes from these daredevil images of the recent International Highline Meeting. Held at Monte Piana this year, which is located in north-eastern Italy, the tightrope gathering allowed like-minded individuals to enjoy a breathtaking panoramic view of the Italian Alps as they hung precariously from a bright red rope.
Whether walking across it or relaxing in the hammocks secured to it to rest and sleep in, people attending the International Highline Meeting were treated to an experience of a lifetime. Not for the faint of heart, the International Highline Meeting is meant for one thing and one thing only: to highline every day. Of course, this singular activity is supplemented by some other highlights.
