The breathtaking aerial video of Norway's Pulpit Rock was shared on Twitter.

A video that captures a breathtaking aerial view of Norway's Pulpit Rock was recently shared online, and it has since left people both thrilled and scared. In the now-viral video, one can see people standing and sitting on Norway's iconic Preikestolen, also known as Pulpit Rock. Some braver ones can even be seen going to the cliff's edge that has no railings or barricades. It is the same cliff where Paramount Pictures held a special screening of Mission: Impossible - Fallout. Not just this, but the climactic fight between Tom Cruise and Henry Cavil in the movie was also shot on this mountaintop.
