Wind there was a bitch last week. I can't imagine it's much better now. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 63620174 Not going to watch. "Street pizza" is not my favorite food group. It was a bitch here Friday.. I think they said mid-wire he faces 15mph winds.. Should be interesting. Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely |

This guy's father died walking tightrope... And he keeps pushing his limits so this should be good to watch. Honestly I wish him luck but he's probably going to die going up the incline with the wind. Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely |

It's GLP, aren't we all?? They're going to commercial, he's walking in less than 10 mins. 64 stories high, between buildings on a rope that actually goes up 8 stories higher. Then, if he makes it he's going to do it blindfolded. This motherfucker has a death wish. Last Edited by Slick.Vick on 11/02/2014 08:31 PM Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely |

I see he's tied to the Marina tower and the Burnett Building. I can tell you this. I have worked on the exteriors of those buildings for years. Swingstage work, and he has little clue of the gusts that can be whipped up around those building shapes and down the river corridor. I think he's nuts but if he falls I hope he falls in the river.
