Daredevils snap contender for scariest selfie ever

It starts as a video of smiling friends eating bananas but within seconds it becomes a contender for the world's scariest selfie.

Photographer Daniel Lau pulled out his "selfie stick" to take dizzying footage of a rooftopping adventure 346m above the streets of Hong Kong.

Lau, fellow photographer Andrew Tso and an unidentified friend are seen in the video snacking while perched dangerously on the spire of The Centre skyscraper, Hong Kong's fifth-tallest skyscraper.

The video is made all the more sickening thanks to a wide-angle lens mounted on a stick, with each pan of the camera sure to turn the stomach of those scared of heights.

The video was reportedly taken earlier this month and posted to Photoblog.hk three days ago.
