by Barney Riley<br /><br />A pair of thrill-seekers dressed in traditional Scottish kilts were spotted base jumping from the top of the William Wallace Monument.<br /><br />The clips show professional base jumpers from Mountain Man BASE as they take the leap from the 220-foot tower that gives panoramic views of Stirling and beyond.<br /><br />Jumpers Andy and Josh are both seen wearing kilts as they take the brief plunge before releasing their parachutes in in Stirling.<br /><br />Nicolas Bertolo, a TikTok content moderator, was with his partner when he saw the bizarre spectacle.<br /><br />He said: "First I thought they were part of a re-enactment, then we saw them on the edge and got really alarmed.<br /><br />"We thought they were building climbers and started filming, later we realized they were actually going to jump and thought they were going to kill themselves.<br /><br />"We wondered if we should stop them but they were on the air by that moment.<br /><br />"We all got super scared about them and left us shaking for about two hours after.<br /><br />"We talked before we asked them if they were going to jump and they said no.<br /><br />"Then when they were on the ledge it was obvious that they were going to jump and a few seconds before doing so they told us that they were going to try to land in a small park below and try not to fall into the trees."<br /><br />Mountain Man BASE told SWNS: "We conducted the jump because we are a team of modern-day explorers and adventurers, so in the spirit of William Wallace we honoured his ethos of fearlessness.<br /><br />"Though we made sure we were on the right side of the law, everything we did that day was legal.<br /><br />"We have received a really good response from everyone, and have been called loveable rogues."<br /><br />ENDS
