This is the moment a group of daredevils leapt from Tower Bridge in a bid to keep cool in the scorching heat
"We were all buzzing off each other's hyped-up energy that it almost felt natural," 18-year-old Adam Szaniawski told The Sun."It took a lot of mental preparation and training beforehand. All of us had flipped off similar heights before."
The group are believed to regularly share images of adrenaline-fuelled stunts online, according to the paper.The Environment Agency has previously advised against jumping into the Thames as the depth may vary - putting those involved at risk. Police forces have also been issuing warnings as more and more people have been spotted bridge jumping into rivers and reservoirs.
"We have received reports of groups of youths jumping from what is known as Platts Bridge into the reservoir at Ardingly, Haywards Heath," a spokesman for Mid Sussex Police said."Reservoirs may look like the perfect place to cool off during spells of hot weather, but they can be full of concealed dangers.
"They are not lakes, the water depth and temperature quickly changes. Keep your family and friends safe this summer."
