Florida aerialist Nik Wallenda completed a tightrope walk without a safety net that took him 1.2 kilometre over the Little Colorado River Gorge in northeastern Arizona on Sunday. Wallenda performed the stunt on a 5 centimetre thick steel cable, 457.2 metres above the river on the Navajo Nation near the Grand Canyon...

It appears to be in his blood.. (2nd or 3rd generation tightrope walker I think)

Probably a good money earner at that level (believe he holds several world records)

I just knew it - they ruined the excitement 


Well, that's the last time I watch live tightrope walking

A few years ago there was a documentary film about a French (?) tight-rope walker who walked between the World Trade Centre twin towers.  I can't remember what it was called.

If his name was Michael and he fell he might have been called Michael Flatley
