This is the head-over-heels moment a teenager leaps out of a fifth-storey window to double flip 75 feet into a snowdrift below.

The footage, filmed in Megion, in Russia’s Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug region. Begins with the boy poised on the window ledge at an apartment block with thick snow on the ground below him.

Then in the heart-flipping clip, he leans forward and plunges head first somersaulting twice before he lands flat on his back in the snow just a few feet from a tree.

As he gets up what appears to be a school rucksack is strapped to his back and he flexes his biceps in a strongman pose and roars.

Then as he sticks his index fingers in the air in victory, he walks off as the footage ends.

The clip was later shared online where it was picked up by mainstream media and Megion police.

Officers said that the boy was not injured and that they were investigating the stunt, according to local media.

Winters in the region are notorious for being long and cold with temperatures often dipping to minus 30 degrees Celsius.
