This is the moment two trapeze artists plunged four metres to the ground after an act went terrifyingly wrong.
The trapeze artists were performing an aerial show at a WA Police Social Club ball in Perth's Hyatt Regency hotel on Thursday night.
Confronting footage of the accident begins with the man and woman towards the end of their routine.
The man can be seen holding on to the rigging with his legs curled around as he holds the woman by her legs, both suspended upside down in the air.
