Model Viktoria Odintsova under fire for death-defying shoot
Russian model Viktoria Odintsova’s death defying online photo shoot atop a Dubai skyscraper has come in for criticism for its lack of safety precautions.
Odintsova, 22, has posted a series of photographs and video depicting her hanging off a Dubai skyscraper without a harness or other safety measures.
“I still can’t believe I did it. Every time I watch the video my palms go sweaty,” Odintsova wrote in a recent post.
Her first Instagram video from the photo shoot garnered over one million views.

But while some of her three million followers admired her bravery, many found it reckless and immature.
“A very bad example for the youth,” said one.
“This is so dumb, i have no words for it. Seems like some 11 year olds want to get attention at all costs,” added another.
While another said “crazy! looks like God gave you beauty, but seems like he forgot to grace you with a brain”.
