Wow.. the pictures you took are really good, he is hard to catch staying still though.. and it was really nice seeing all the different videos, I got a good impression of the show.
A film about his famous walk between the Twn Towers is about to be released. It's called "Man on Wire". Petit is alive and well and lives in the US. He participated in the making of the film.
dude he is the coolest guy ive ever met, he was in my school today.. he is the coolest. but im not sure about the rest of the french people cuz hes the only one ive met
@pinkfloyd4241 I used to know Philippe in Paris, back in the early 70's. I loved the guy when he was just a street performer (like me) but, and it pains me enormously to say this, I have to agree. But I can't help thinking that he'd never have acheived his 'coup' if he hadn't been selfish and single-minded. And I don't think balls had anything to do with it. He's just supremely confident, certain that he could never make a mistake.
Most of you have your facts wrong. Director Robert Zemeckis is not "remaking" the documentary "Man On Wire." He owns the film rights to Petit's book "To Reach the Clouds." He's not even in pre-production yet. And because he owns the film rights doesn't mean he will direct. A documentary is a documentary and a feature film is a feature film. Two different types of movies.
bello, non so se è lui, il video ha una definizione veramente bassa, come la visuale... in ogni caso fa piacere immaginare che a un certo punto philippe si è divertito a fare altro :-)
Well I kinda had to get my point through somehow.. It's really hard to explain, why I just don't think it fits.. Let me try. I think that Amelie, is a cute french fantasy story, while what Petit stands for to me is masculinity, he is one of the bravest men that exist on this earth, with what he does and has achived he deserves some music that truly underlines that... see if you can find a better choice.. I am sure you can, if you think about it..
The soundtrack from Amelie, fits perfectly for that, but not Philippe Petit.. do you understand what I mean.. I ment the "stupid" word in a funny way, never ment to insult.. :)
It's a wonderful and beautiful thing what you did "congratulations", but it took Annie's heart to be broken, you WERE part of her life dream but your thought was only you, because the very same day you acomplished the walk between the Twin Towers(World Trade Center) you went to celebrate by having sex with another girl other than "Annie" (she was a fool) without thinking it twice, you broke her heart 💔 (that's why she left), (you were only using her) your only thought was you, you and you alone but never really cared for her, to you she was just your accomplice.
He proves that a dreamer can do what he wants if he sets his mind to it. What a great person.
Thank you thank you... so much! Very kind of you!

Gracias por subir el video qué espectáculo ver cómo hace felices a muchos con su arte :)
Thanks for this charming video. I just got around to watching Man On Wire tonight, and felt the need for a little more Petit!
Awesome! Philippe Petit is great.

I love you!
Merci Philippe.

Hey, we were there too. Great to see a video memory of the event!
You are certainly entitled to that. I have put a link to the unedited videos and a few pictures in the video description.

JonOBrien ; oh my god,you knew philippe?!
Could help me get in touch with him? email or address works for me. I have googled him buit couldn't find anywhere to start. Thanks!

Does anyone know the name of the back ground music? It's beautiful and quite familiar.

he walked across the wtc
Aparently it was just under 45 mins according to wikipedia?
Have to agree with mangelpaaider. I think the music is more suitable for a caricature of what is French...
The soundtrack from Amelie, fits perfectly for that, but not Philippe Petit.. do you understand what I mean..
I ment the "stupid" word in a funny way, never ment to insult.. :)
Still the GOAT ... World Trade Center 1974 ... 🕋-🧎♂️-🕋 👣👣 .
Well he cant even if he wanted to..

What?? How are you sure of all that?
i wonder if he is dead or alive
Courtney Dobson he is alive
Courtney Dobson ; and you need to look Phillppe Petit up at Wikipedia.
But why the stupid Amelie music.. can you make a video without that music...?
