Curtis Rivers, a professional stuntman, attempts the highest bungee jump from over 5000 meters in a hot air balloon. Parachutist Lenny Woodcock films the event with a helmet camera. Due to the high altitude, both use oxygen masks. Before the jump, a joke lightens the mood. The bungee cord stretches to 30 meters, and after bouncing, Rivers cuts himself free to parachute down. The jump breaks the previous world record by 900 meters.
