This stuntman backflipping over a speeding Formula E car is completely terrifying

As far as stunts go, this has to be one of the most nail-biting to watch.
Jumping over a racing car would be ridiculous e**ugh — in fact scratch that, even riding in one would be more than e**ugh for us — but stuntman Damien Walters goes one step further in the clip above: he faces away from the damn thing and actually backflips over it.

Oh, and the Formula E car in the clip above is travelling towards him at around 100 kmph (62 mph).
**pe. **pe. **pe.
