Partying gets dangerous as teens Snapchat balcony hopping

Celebrating the end of high school is a rite of passage in the education system. But celebrating by drunkenly balcony hopping is a surefire way to inspire boomers everywhere to shake their aged fists to the sky and cry "those confounded youths" over and over until the end of time.

Australian students celebrate their end of high school education by travelling to the sunshine coast in Queensland to lap up the sun and party long into the night; like spring break, but with Australian accents.

Over the weekend, a teenage girl was filmed by her friends on the other side of their hotel balcony, attempting to "balcony hop" to an adjacent room. The unsettling footage shows the teen edging along the building's exterior, just inches from free fall.

The identity of the teen has not been released, but the Snapchat footage, acquired by 7 News, has many concerned for the safety of partiers. In 2012, during the celebrations at Schoolies, a 17-year-old girl fell to her death from a high-rise balcony.

Local police issued warnings to the public after the footage surfaced, in which an onlooker can be heard saying, "this isn't going to be funny when she falls."

Schoolies celebrations continue in the sunshine state until early December.
