Josie Gibson was left terrified for her life on Friday’s This Morning after she agreed to take part in a scary challenge.
The former Big Brother winner was sent flying off the edge of a 1200ft mountain in North Wales’ Penryhn Slate Quarry in Bethesda on the Zip World Velocity 2.
The zipline is the longest in Europe and the fastest in the world, so Josie, 35, was in for a thrill of a ride.
But as she geared up for launch, she announced she didn’t want to do it any more – but just seconds later she was sailing through the air.
The mum-of-one screamed in terror as she sailed down the almost minute-long ride, after telling everyone: “I’m gonna faint her, I’m gonna faint.”

She asked the instructors: “Am I safe in here? Can everyone just check me again because I’m precious cargo, alright?”
Before long, Josie was back on solid ground and she celebrated, saying: “I just can’t believe I’m alive, I’m so happy. Feet are on the ground. I’m shaking like a leaf. What a rush, what a rush!”
She said: “I am shaking, there we go guys! Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to do that, as you can see I really enjoyed that one.

“My whole body’s shaking here. What an experience.
“Wow, I’m alive! I’m alive!”
She joked: “The best bit, it was landing, definitely.”
Later on in the episode, hosts Dermot O’Leary and Rochelle Humes checked back in to see how Josie was doing.
Looking much calmer, the Bristol lass said: “I’m fine, I’ve had a cup of tea. The adrenaline’s worn off.
“When I landed my adrenaline was going so much, I can’t even remember speaking to you.”
She went on: “I was at the top, dangling down, head first, 1200ft.
“I almost chickened out. Luckily enough they let me go anyway, because I could’ve chickened out at any point, but I’m so glad I did it.”
This Morning airs weekdays at 10am on ITV
