The model, 23, was held up only by the hand of a male assistant as she leaned out into thin air from the tower in a bid to get the perfect Instagram shot.

The Russian model first tilted backwards over the huge drop, before dangling high above the ground from the arm of her bearded helper.

"I still cannot believe that I did it. Every time I watch this video, my palms get sweaty," she had said then.

Odintsova posted the video on her social media page where it quickly went viral.
