Gretchen Ho attempted an extreme way to ride an airplane by getting strapped to one of its wings.

The TV host and volleyball player thoroughly enjoyed her wing-walking experience as the small Boeing Stearman plane taxied down the runway and took off into the sky.

Death defying stunt today for #TVPatrol 😱😱😱😱😱 I can’t believe I’m gonna do this!!!! These Boeing Stearman planes have been around since World War II. They’re here for the first time in the PH and I’ll be the first Filipino here to try #WingWalking!!! Let’s go 💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻 #womaninaction
