A new video posted by the StuntFreaksTeam shows a group of Finnish men who decided to attach a parachute to a snow mobile and then drive it off the side of a 1.5-kilometer mountain. The parachute managed to help the vehicle land safely on the ground, of course, but this is still something we would never try on our own unless we were being paid a healthy sum of cash.

The man riding the airborne snowmobile seems to be showing no anxiety, however — at one point he even starts munching on a chocolate bar as he’s drifting high above the ground without a care in the world.

Check out the whole video below.
