Don't jump! Oh, he can't... Incredible chalk drawings that appear to change London's skyline

 

At first glance he appears to be inches from disaster.
But this man apparently wobbling, arms outstretched, on the verge of a 300ft drop is actually  perfectly safe.
He is an artist who has drawn this three-dimensional street scene on the flat roof of a building.

Inches from death... or really? Pavement artist stands on the edge of his drawing of a New York scene - in London
The astonishing optical illusion means he appears to be about to fall from a London rooftop, surrounded by a panorama which includes the City.
But sharp-eyed observers will spot that the street scene below him includes a New York yellow taxi and a U.S. police SWAT team.
 
Pavement artist Joe Hill was commissioned to draw the scene to celebrate the release of Hollywood film Man On A Ledge.
In the film, a New York police psychologist has to attempt to talk down a former policeman who has threatened to jump to his death from a Manhattan hotel rooftop.
