Josh Sheehan is a fearless man, that's for sure.

On Tuesday, the Nitro Circus athlete completed the world's first triple backflip on an FMX motor bike, which you can watch in the video, above.

Josh completed the trick at the home of Travis Pastrana, who was the first person to land a double backflip in competition back in 2006.

Travis and Josh stopped by our office to discuss the years of preparation for the stunt on our Meerkat and Periscope channels. Josh even had enough energy to land a standing backflip despite it being the day after the trick.
