A climber made a nail-biting 2,019m ascent on a limestone ridge - no wider than his shoulders.

Alpinist Dani Arnold, 39, braved the razor-thin ridge with sheer long drops on each side.

An amazing video shows the climber scrambling up the "rare" rock formation on Kreuzberg mountain in eastern Switzerland.

Dani encountered the formation two hours into a six-hour climb., which he carried out with fellow climber, Michi, 55.
