Netflix viewers have been left on the verge of 'puking' after watching a nail-biting new documentary delving into the world of 'skywalkers'.

If you're after something that's set toreally get your pulse racing, look no further than this 'wild' doc that's left viewers 'shaking'.

The film in question follows couple Angela Nikolau and Ivan Beerkus who climb the world's last super skyscraper, 'blending daring acrobatics with a tumultuous love story'.

In the doc - titled Skywalkers: A Love Story , the 'pair of Moscow daredevils', who’ve made a career out of scaling some of the world’s tallest buildings, open up about their shared passion for climbing and how it's brought them closer as a couple over the years.

"There’s a danger to romance," co-director Jeff Zimbalist told Queue. "It crushes us. It breaks our hearts.

"It breaks our hopes. Here, that danger is material. If the love falls apart, if the trust falls apart, it’s life or death. That felt like such a potent way of taking this amorphous sense that we all have in our romance and externalising it and making it tangible."

"When they get on the spires or cranes, the danger factor is exponentially higher," Zimbalist continued. "They know each other and they can read each other’s [body] language, but we had not practiced with them, so having cameras around could be distracting and put them in further danger.

"Luckily, they’re great photographers. They were able to get amazing coverage when they went up without us to these heights; [it’s] just gorgeous spectacle."

Netflix viewers are rushing to social media to share their praise for the docu-film.
