In the doc - titled Skywalkers: A Love Story , the 'pair of Moscow daredevils', who’ve made a career out of scaling some of the world’s tallest buildings, open up about their shared passion for climbing and how it's brought them closer as a couple over the years.

"There’s a danger to romance," co-director Jeff Zimbalist told Queue. "It crushes us. It breaks our hearts.

"It breaks our hopes. Here, that danger is material. If the love falls apart, if the trust falls apart, it’s life or death. That felt like such a potent way of taking this amorphous sense that we all have in our romance and externalising it and making it tangible."

"When they get on the spires or cranes, the danger factor is exponentially higher," Zimbalist continued. "They know each other and they can read each other’s [body] language, but we had not practiced with them, so having cameras around could be distracting and put them in further danger.

"Luckily, they’re great photographers. They were able to get amazing coverage when they went up without us to these heights; [it’s] just gorgeous spectacle."

Netflix viewers are rushing to social media to share their praise for the docu-film.

Check out the official trailer here:

One X user penned: "Just watched Skywalkers on Netflix absolutely mental!"

"Skywalkers on Netflix is everything you want from a documentary," quipped a second while a third chimed in: "Skywalkers docu on Netflix is wiiiiild."

A fourth gushed: "Watching this Skywalkers documentary on @netflix and despite them stressing me out this ending is actually so dope."

"OMG. My palms and feet are still sweating," revealed a fifth. "They are alive, so I watched it with pauses in between because I was shaking. Crazier than this!"

Viewers had quite the physical reaction to the 'crazy' doc. (Netflix)

"I almost puked just from watching the trailer for the new doc on Netflix, Skywalkers..." wrote another, as a final viewer added: "Want to grip on to your sofa whilst your toes curl? Then watch Skywalkers on Netflix."

Well, I know what I'll be watching tonight!
