But the 20-year-old cheated death when the hand grip broke away, pitching him on to the road at high speed.

He posted the video onto Facebook with the caption: “So I guess it’s about time. Sunday night I was being a massive idiot and got ballsy.

“I know know how quickly something that’s going good can turn into a s***storm in a matter of a seconds.

“I was going roughly 50-55mph. I got lucky, let the following images and video be a lesson to everyone. Please be careful, be safe.”

The video shows Noel hanging out the window of the moving car, holding onto the safety handle above the door to keep himself steady.

While loud music is playing in the background, he swings around and puts his finger up to the camera, when shockingly the handle is holding onto breaks and he falls out the moving car.

Speaking about the aftermath of the incident Noel said: “I feel great now.

"Healing up nicely but right after it happened I was laying there curious if I was dead or not.
