The mayor of Rotterdam, who says she is terrified of heights, has pledged to abseil down the city's highest tower if turnout increases in Wednesday's local elections.

Carola Schouten posted a video on Instagram Tuesday from the observation platform of Rotterdam's Euromast, the city's 185-metre-high (600-feet) landmark currently under renovation.
