It's safe to say professional wrestlers enjoy taking risks. Every time they get in the ring, wrestlers put their bodies on the line in order to entertain the masses.

That being said, it's hard to think of a bigger daredevil than AEW star Darby Allin.
Not only is his finisher leaping backwards off of high places, it is often through various debris, including tables, chairs, glass, and more.
Now, Allin has proven to be the most fearless pro wrestler by becoming the first to reach the top of Mount Everest.
"Mount Everest summit," Allin said on Instagram. "What a ride thanks AEW for everything in life. Thanks to the amazing team at adventure consultants and the Sherpa squad this s--- was wild!"
Allin also set another record on Mount Everest: performing a kickflip at the highest elevation (20,958 feet).
Finally, Allin paid tribute to a fellow pro wrestler who had a major effect on his Mount Everest journey: WWE Hall of Famer Diamond Dallas Page.
Upon reaching the summit, Allin gave the classic Diamond Cutter taunt associated with the multi-time WCW World Champion.
"I didn't know s--- about mountains and was going to go to this low rent place when I googled how to climb Mount Everest years ago and [Diamond Dallas Page] said f--- that and put me in touch with the right people to do this journey the right way so thx Dallas," Allin said on Instagram Stories, per Matt Black of Wrestle Zone.
"HUGE congrats to my boy @darbyallin on his amazing accomplishment!" DDP said on social media. "And thanks for throwing up the Diamond Cutter at the top of the world!"

Allin is considered one of the pillars of AEW alongside Michael Jacob Friedman (MJF), Jack Perry, and Sammy Guevara.
Allin began wrestling professionally since 2014 and signed with AEW in April 2019. He made his in-ring debut against Cody Rhodes in June at Fyter Fest.
Since then, Allin has become one of the most popular wrestlers in the company, taking home the AEW TNT Championship twice and the AEW World Tag Team Championship with Sting.
