Estonian World Slackline Champion Jan Ruz Conquers the Heights of Katara Towers

September 1, 2023

Estonian World Slackline Champion Jan Ruz successfully walked across a slackline between the towers of the Katara Towers hotel in Qatar, at a height of nearly 200 meters. Slacklining differs from tightrope walking in that it involves walking on an elastic webbing that reacts to every movement. Ruz challenged himself further by choosing to do this walk in a hot and desert climate, where streams of air rise from the sand.
