I was on the beach filming and taking photo's of the whole thing, it was absolutely nuts, he is totally crazy, nevermind that the ship is basically falling apart and most people would even stand on the deck on the wreck, never mind climb the 40m crane whilst flying a kite!!

Lets see people call this one fake. still a really stupid stunt that boarders on insanity. So many things that could have gone wrong. In all honesty he is lucky he didn't get hurt or worse killed. Not to mention this is the second time he has done this. Much respect to mad skills.
