This may be the ultimate selfie.

Daredevil shutterbug Lucinda Grange — perhaps inspired by the iconic 1934 image of New York photo pioneer Margaret Bourke-White — sat on one of the Chrysler Building’s stainless-steel eagles for a spine-tingling self- portrait 1,000 feet over Midtown.

The British adventurer, 24, has also scaled the Pyramids of Giza and the Brooklyn Bridge.

Grange has traveled around the world for the past six years, risking death and arrest to capture her breathtaking photos.
