Balls...of...steel.

Two kite surfers from West Sussex took advantage of strong winds on the south coast to realise an ambition to jump over Worthing pier.
Jake Scrace, 25, and Lewis Crathern, 24, had been planning Monday morning's jump for three years but had to wait for perfect weather conditions.
They took off from Goring to the west of Worthing in gusts of wind that were more than 40mph.
Mr Scrace described the build up to the jump as "terrifying".
