Coulter released the video of the recreated rope swing last month that featured his friends, Brandon Beck and Chase Reinford.
Under the caption of the video, Coulter's production team wrote: 'The monster rope swing created by Mike Wilson is back! 7 years later a new generation of huckery has taken on the challenge of the biggest known rope swing ever into a water.
'No one on this planet except Mike Wilson would hit this swing without being extremely nervous.
'With that being said Nick Coulter made sure he assembled the most experienced extreme athletes capable of hitting this swing successfully and safely,' the caption read.
At the beginning of the video, Coulter is heard talking to Wilson on the phone about 'setting up' Wilson's rope swing.
'Of course. It hasn't been hit in a few years. Definitely take a look at it and make sure it's safe and good to go,' Wilson is heard saying to Coulter.
Brandon Beck (left) went second and afterwards he said: 'I felt like I went to another dimension for a minute and then came back.' Chase Reinford (right) then took his turn on the rope swing
'Nick hit me up. He was like, "We're going to redo the Mike Wilson rope swing of 99 feet." At first I was like, "Dude, you're crazy. I do not want anything to do with this",' Reinford (pictured) said in the video before his jump

The adrenaline junkies started off with a trip to the hardware store to get all of the equipment needed for the jump.
After Coulter and Wilson spoke about the swing, the clip then cuts to Coulter and his adventurous buddies setting up the equipment along the cliff over Lake Tahoe.
'Nick hit me up. He was like, "We're going to redo the Mike Wilson rope swing of 99 feet." At first I was like, "Dude, you're crazy. I do not want anything to do with this",' Reinford said in the video.
The first jump was completed by Coulter, who managed to flip once in the air before landing in the water.
During Coulter's second jump, he was able to pull off two backflips mid-air.
Beck went second and afterwards he said: 'I felt like I went to another dimension for a minute and then came back.'
Up next was Reinford who completed a few twisting backflips before hitting the lake.
The trio later popped open three bottles of champagne as they celebrated on the rocks overlooking Lake Tahoe.
