Parachutes were joined by a tricycle, BMX bike, body board, skis and a pogo stick as members of international dare devil act Nitro Circus hurled themselves out of a plane above Matamata today.
Wearing a snorkel mask and flippers Canadian dare devil and motorcross rider Jolene Van Vugt dropped from one of two planes along with her American co-star Erik Roner on a kid's tricycle.
The impressive stunt marked the launch of ticket sales for Nitro Circus Live's first New Zealand tour. Shows will be held in Auckland, Hamilton, Wellington, Christchurch and Dunedin in February.
The stars were joined by a crew of eight including FMX champs Steve McCann, Cam 'Sincs' Sinclair and 16 times X Games winner Travis Pastrana all on wacky contraptions.
The live show will star all the performers from MTV's Nitro Circus and promises to be an action filled show with theatrics and stunts staged around the 50 foot high Nitro Gigant-A-Ramp.
