what happen

Did he died?

I watched. Talk about a buzz kill with the tether. I was coming up with complex ways that he could still die in my mind. Totally ruined the mood =(

He didn't want to wear it. He was pissed and it was a huge thing around here for a while, but they wouldn't let him walk across unless he agreed to wear it.

So some guy walked across Niagra falls with a tether of some sort? Sounds about like some shit they'd do up there.

 

[ItsReal93]

lol Yup and made a huge ordeal about it for MONTHS. not only that people actually forked over $1,000 for VIP tickets once the free ones sold out.

Saw the preshow of his father dying while walking across 2 hotels I think. Thats a sucky way to die, but did he walk across or no?

It was his great grandfather.

I fell asleep before it started and only caught bits and pieces of it. He ended up using a tether? I'd never be able to make it across but damn that takes away all the risk.

He had no choice, though. It was either use it or not do the walk. Still quite a feat, tether or not.

It was a neat stunt. IMO if you can have a device that will make something like this safer then that is the way to go.
