The video, captured by Hostelworld, shows mum and dad at home in front of the screen _ oblivious to what their son’s about to do.

Ryan blurts out: “I’m going to jump out of an aeroplane now, so I’ll talk to you in a second.”
His parents can’t believe what they’re seeing. Both let loose with expletives.
“I thought he was in a bus!” his dad says.
