Thank the heavens Kanye West has "Yeezus" on his side.

During a radio interview with SaturdayNightOnline.com, the rapper compared his daring stage maneuvers to the dangers facing a cop or a soldier at war.

"I'm just giving of my body on the stage and putting my life at risk, literally," West said to host Garrett, referring to his tour performances of songs like "Can't Tell Me Nothing" and "Coldest Winter," during which he stands on top of a moving mountain.
