Hong Kong officials claim that the building’s security guard attempted to cross-examine Lucidi’s claim of visiting a friend on the 40th floor, but the stuntman had already caught an elevator by then.
Police found Lucidi’s sports camera at the scene, which contained videos of extreme sports. An official statement and the cause of the stuntman’s death are yet to be revealed by the Hong Kong police.
Shortly before his death, Lucidi posted a photograph of the Hong Kong skyline on his Instagram profile. According to his social media page, Lucidi attempted stunts in various parts of the world, such as Bulgaria, Portugal, France, Ukraine and Dubai.
In one of his Instagram photos, he can be seen standing on the top of a skyscraper overlooking the Sheikh Zayed Road in Dubai. Lucidi started climbing skyscrapers in 2016. Since then, the stuntman travelled around the world attempting different kinds of stunts.
