I would have boned her by the end.
The cable is about 3-4" in diameter and the long pole he uses for balance weighs about 40 lbs. Tight rope walking runs in that family for decades. His grandfather died doing it. I doubt it's faked because I've seen it done at the circus. They may have added some drama to it.
I'm pretty athletic so I figure with very little training I could walk that cable with the pole for balance, but I wouldn't do it over a 1500' deep canyon. That's what separates him from me.
I would imagine that the longer you're out there, the tougher it gets. Exponentially.
Not one single pic of the hot ass wife? You guys blow.
I was freaked out when he kneeled down to "rest" on the bar and get the rhythm of the wire. Crazy stuff but very cool
welcome back chick.
I'd like to see someone walk a tightrope over a football stadium during a game.
Didn't read through this entire thread, but for the Skywire dude, anyone else think this was fake? Either somehow there was a safety net or wire somewhere, or maybe not taped at all and this was a camera trick. I just have a hard time believing someone did this and not only did it, but made it look so easy. Either that wire is as thick as a 4x4 or tight rope walking is easier than most think?
When the fuck did this go back to the high wire shit... We moved on and converted this shit to the naked survival thread! You guise don't read do you?!
