Photographer Cameron Gardner, 24, followed the daredevil athletes to Moab, in Utah and Yosemite, in California to capture these amazing shots of their breathtaking stunts.His pictures show Canadian Julien Desforges and Ray Diaz edging along their slacklines - thin strips of canvas held in place by a winch - taking up to ten minutes to cross from one side to the other.Cameron said: 'Walking across a rope so high feels different for everyone it's a balance of fear and joy. Once you are able to calm down and settle in it's a really meditative experience. 'Highlining is definitely not about getting all pumped up on energy and adrenaline. It's about everything all coming together at once and enjoying being in that moment with the natural world.'Really, highlining is a lot like life: you take it one step at a time until you overcome the obstacle you are facing and are back on solid ground again.'Despite the death-defying appearance of these pictures, all the highliners are actually tied on to their lines by safety ropes, which are double knotted and ensure that any fall only lasts for a couple of feet.(dailymail.co.uk)Bakudaily.az
