It seems as though Montreal's Old Port was packed over the weekend and various incidents occurred within the masses of people. On Saturday night, one crowd was large enough that one local was able to jump off a raised platform into a group where people all held him up and let him crowd surf.

The Montrealer who took the big leap into the crowd, Michael Torres, told MTL Blog it was "the best jump of [his] life."

MTL Blog does not promote this type of behaviour.

A video of Torres' jump has gone viral. Local Instagram pages @514tiktok and @mtlflextv shared the video in their stories.

We do not recommend trying this for yourself.
