Shocking footage has emerged of two men taking their lives into their own hands while climbing over rooftops in Hull city centre.
The men were filmed leaping from one roof to another and also sitting on chimney stacks on top of buildings in the Parliament Street area.
Both were wearing hoodies, with their hoods up, and could be seen passing a black and white rucksack between themselves as they scaled the buildings, which are close to the junction where the road meets Alfred Gelder Street.
During one risky stunt, one of the men jumped across a gap in the roofing, only managing to stay upright after grabbing hold of a chimney, before he sat down on it to take a break.

The same man then displayed cat-like movements, scuttling along the top of one of the pointed roofs before climbing down at the other side.
During two separate videos, they can be seen jumping around the old buildings which now house a range of offices and flats.

Both men were performing the stunts with dark blue hoods up and were wearing dark trousers. One man was filmed wearing a blue coat while the other was wearing a green one.

The pair then made off when they became aware they were being filmed from an adjoining office block by a member of staff, before running between two raised roofs and clambering down to the ground.
