A daredevil social media free-climber nicknamed the "Spider-Man of Yemen" has died after falling into a volcanic crater in the country's south-west.

Al-Qaqa Ibn Antar had been attempting to climb its steep rock faces on Friday without safety equipment when he fell in, according to local authorities.

The 30-year-old had a large following on social media and was well known for performing daring acrobatic stunts in online videos.

The Hardah Dam volcanic crater is one of the country's most famous natural landmarks.

It shows Antar climbing the near-vertical wall of the crater before appearing to lose his grip and fall.

Yemen's Civil Defence Authority praised the "heroic efforts" of its water rescue team for successfully recovering Antar's body "from the bottom of the crater" in a statement issued on Sunday.

Got away with it till he didn't . Dude didn't let moss grow on him. Beats dying on the couch .

@Dr.Dip I'd rather die on my couch. It's actually more comfy than a pile of rocks.

@Lemmiwinks Too bad he didn't have a GoPro filming his face when his handhold broke. I'd pay honest money to see that!
