A French man who is known for extreme sports is dead after falling off the 68th-story of Hong Kong residential.

Remi Lucidi, 30, was climbing the Tregunter Tower complex when the man fell according to the South China Morning Post.

Lucidi, known online as Remi Enigma, was pronounced dead at the scene.

According to Hong Kong officials, Lucidi arrived at the building around 6 p.m. and told the security guard that he was visiting a friend on the 40th floor.

A security officer attempted to apprehend Lucidi after the alleged friend confirmed he was not acquainted with Lucidi — but by then the stuntman had already secured an elevator.

Security footage later glimpsed Lucidi arriving on the 49th floor and then again taking the stairs up to the top of the building.

According to those in pursuit of Lucidi, they found the hatch leading to the roof open, but he was nowhere in sight.

Police say the man was last seen alive at 7:38 p.m. when he tapped on the window of the complex’s penthouse, prompting a maid to call the police.

Free fall calculator.

He had about 9 seconds to think about his decisions while going around 150 fps.

The Universe is a cruel and unforgiving place. Violate the laws of physics and pay the consequences.

Regardless of the stories about Superman, man cannot fly without the aid of certain strategies and reliance on artificial means.

“Police have yet to issue an official cause of death.”

Concrete poisoning?

Rapid deceleration syndrome?
