While several trapeze artists have tried and failed at suspending tens of feet above the ground, few have managed to accomplish what this one performer managed to in a now-viral clip — falling so hard that the entire setup tumbled down with him.

In the video, which was shared by @TheWapplehouse on Monday, the tightrope walker can be seen attempting to jump onto the suspended cable, a feat that quickly goes horribly, horribly wrong after he manages to miss his target. Though he remained suspended upside down for a split second, the entire apparatus buckled under his weight, sending the performer — and the entire platform — plummeting to the ground, eliciting screams from those watching the stunt.

Though @TheWapplehouse may have captioned the failed stunt as “the best worst outcome I’ve ever seen,” we beg to differ — how the hell this man did not break every bone in his body is truly a circus miracle.
