A trapeze artist from Kenya fell a massive 85-foot from a trapeze - and everything has been captured on camera.

The fall happened during a circus performance in Moscow last month. Despite having a safety net up to catch unfortunate falls, the trapeze artist fell with so much velocity that he broke through the net and landed on the ground.

The fall left visitors screaming but luckily the trapeze artist did not die.

The Kenyan suffered bad injuries and required immediate medical attention - he is expected to make a full recovery.
The video of the fall has since gone viral on Youtube.

"I am so sad for that man," said one viewer. "I hope he will have a full recovery like it says in the description. It's just it was a tremendously horrific fall and I don't know how a human can survive such an impact and then recover fully and go back to the same work. Incredible. Also we should give the credit to his physical condition in helping him to survive and heal. When you are in great shape such as he is in that helps you survive."

The artist, who is unnamed, is expected to eventually return to work as a trapeze artist.
