Two thrillseekers have captured on video their cloak and dagger base jump from a rooftop bar 48 floors up near Canary Wharf.

The pair had a few drinks at the Attic Bar in the Pan Peninsula in east London waiting for the wind to die down before secretly putting on their parachutes in the bar toilets and surprising other diners shocked as they leapt from the balcony into the night sky.

The pair both managed to land safely on the street below before jumping into a waiting car to make their escape before the police arrived.

The police may have eventually caught up with their getaway car, but no action was taken, and the duo published their adrenaline-packed video on Epic TV.
