Sharing the video, she wrote, “A special special thankyouuuu to my person @yannickben for training me to do all of my own stunts (yes all of them) for pushing me to give it my all even when every part of my body ached (thanks for the pain killers by the way). I have a solid fear of heights but I jumped off that building only because I knew you had my back... lots and lots of love @yannickben #familymanseason2.”
