VERTIGO sufferers look away now. Footage of a daredevil motorcyclist speeding across a narrow icy mountain ridge with sheer drops either side of him has taken the internet by storm.
 
The rider, thought to be a man called Gorpo McMahan, shows no fear as he rides along the tiny pathway on a snowy peak outside the town of Grand Junction, Colorado.
 
Since the video was uploaded on YouTube on 14 January, more than 458,000 viewers have tuned in to watch him rev up the tinny-sounding Motocross bike and traverse the snowy pathway for the 1 min 28 sec ride.
