A security camera captured the moment a fearless two-year-old boy hung onto a garage door as it started sliding up.
The footage filmed at the family's home in Charleston, South Carolina shows the kid stop the garage door from shutting by triggering the sensor and then clinging onto it as it opens back up.
As he approaches the top he lets go and falls down to the ground but springs back to his feet as his dad questions his behaviour.
The two-year-old's father told Newsflare: "After arriving home, my wife, 2-and-a-half-year-old son, and myself walk inside the garage. I hit the button to close the door behind us.
"My son had different plans and had apparently learned that he can stop the door by moving in front of the safety sensor. He kicks his foot in the sensor path, causing the garage door to reverse direction. He then grabs onto the door and using his surprising toddler grip strength, and rides upwards around three feet off of the ground.
"Upon hearing the door reopening, I walked out to check on him only to see him hanging momentarily and then letting go, landing almost entirely on his feet. I give him a 'what are you thinking?' body gesture, to which he responds with excitement about his ride and subsequent fall. He was completely uninjured."
