Nik Wallenda To Attempt To Tightrope Across Canyon Tonight 7PM CST On Discovery
Wallenda walked across Niagara Falls last year and tonight will attempt to walk across the Little Colorado Gorge in Arizona live on the Discovery channel at 7pm CST.
Countdown to the walk comes on at 5pm CST. 1500 ft high, taller than the Empire State Bldg. this time untethered, no safety net. He wanted to walk across The Grand Canyon but he was not allowed to just like they refused Evel Knievel in the 70's. Watch this video, guy is truly nuts or has balls of steel or both. http://skywire.discovery.com/360.htm..._utmk=49727590 http://www.forbes.com/sites/andrewbe...-grand-canyon/ Last edited by houstonwhodat; 06-23-2013 at 03:35 PM.. |

2 hours of family backstory, interviews, buildup and hype. 20 minutes of walk.

This is about as close as this generation of youngsters will get to the great Evil Knievel specials on Wide World of Sports in the 70s...they'd stretch a motorcycle jump out for two hours...

#1 world wide trending topic on Twitter. Some successful marketing right there.
