Last year, high wire artist Nik Wallenda became the first person to cross the Grand Canyon on a wire. At a height of 1,500 feet above the Little Colorado River, Nik faced the challenges of wind gusts measured at 48 miles per hour. Throwback to Nik’s walk last year by tuning into a 60-minute pre-show, airing on Monday, November 3 at 7:00 a.m. on Discovery Channel.
“I’m always pushing myself both physically and emotionally. I hope to inspire people around the world and show that the impossible is not so impossible if you set your mind to it,” said Nik Wallenda. Not only will this be the highest skyscraper walk in the history of the Flying Wallenda family, it will be the first time that he has ever attempted it at such a steep angle.
Watch Nik’s most challenging tightrope walk yet taking place in Chicago, on SKYCRAPER LIVE WITH NIK WALLENDA from 8:00 – 10:30 a.m. His daring feat will be captured from different angles by 20 cameras. To view the live streaming, log on to SkyscraperLive.com.
