Don't look down: These slacklining photos will give you full-blown vertigo
Scared of heights? We apologise for what you're about to see.
But the video footage and imagery captured by this Tasmanian photographer and videographer is too awe-inspiring to not share.
Simon Bischoff is a Hobart-based nature-lover who works under the name Video Compass, and the footage he captures of professional climbers and slackliners will probably give you vertigo. And a serious desire to put Tasmania on a travel dream board.

Bischoff's latest jaw-dropping drone video features pro slackliner Lukas Irmler casually walking on a high line across two massive coastal cliffs that look straight out of a Game of Thrones landscape shot.
It's terrifying, especially when he gets the death wobbles.

But a quick stalk through Bischoff's Instagram account proves there's plenty more where that came from.

Although he battles fear of heights, Bischoff says he mostly worries "about breaking my gear in these harsh environments. This is very stressful.
"I think for me the appeal is just managing all this stress and risk and making it something manageable."
Glad the navy didn't blow this one up...

He continues: "When you put a lot of effort in and take a lot of risks you end up with really rare and spectacular footage that is unique, that's my formula and that's what I spend my life doing. And Tasmania is a great place to do it!"

It's all very inspiring and simultaneously terrifying. And as for Irmler, well, they don't call him a professional for nothing. Just look at this guy.

Thanks, you guys. For doing all the incredible feats of bravery that we (or any sensible person, ever) never would.
