Thrill seeking parachutists from across the globe leapt from Baling River Bridge in Anshun, Guizhou province on Oct 22, as a part of the international invitations parachuting event held in the city.

Some 30 competitors from the United States, Canada and New Zealand and other countries ascended the 370-meter-high bridge and swiftly parachuted to the valley floor below.

First held in 2012 and every year after, parachuting masters from all over the world are attracted to the city to jump from the bridge.

Baling River Bridge, stretching across the Baling River Gorge, is 2,237 meters long and 370 meters high above the Baling River. It was opened to traffic in 2009.
