I'm SO glad Blondin didn't fall - at Niagra... I'm even MORE certain that Harry felt the same!!! He suffered from the affects of PTSD - "Permanent Tightrope Sudden Death"...
Wow is right. This would've have absolutely terrified me. I don't do well with heights. I went to Niagara Falls about 30 years ago. The pictures just don't do it justice. It's soooo high. :)
I often wonder how they put the rope or lines across the Niagra or other places. Great video. I personally would never try to walk a tight rope, even if it was just a foot of the ground. Mainly because I have bad balance. anyway Thanks to you and your team and keep up the great work. I always look forward to what ya'll will bring up next.
That's a great question. I can only guess. I'm with you. No tightrope walking for me. I have great balance until I think about falling. That sounds nuts but it's true. Thank you again, Steven, for the continued encouragement. :)
Thank you for all of your hard work in providing the rest of the rest of the story. I love listening to these past audios which I listened to as a child.
We would now understand the severe PTSD Harry suffered. The greatness of death defying daredevils, such as the Wallenda's, Houdini, Knievel, et al......could nary a Tik Tokker ever really understand their greatness? It takes a special breed, tremendous discipline, combined with true skill. NGL, I could N E V E R have been one of them, having tremendous fear of heights. In my very early twenties, my first plane ride was in an open door Cessna, jumping out at 3,000 feet (Whoohoo), I was SO damn glad to get out of that thing. Always had a fear of planes, I'm not at the controls, always felt as if the bottom could fall out from beneath me, (severe control issues). For THE longest time I could say I had taken off in an airplane, yet NEVER landed in one🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Give me a train, ship, or auto, I'm there....tightrope walking? OH, HELL NO! Z E R O balance, even while keeping my two feet firmly on them ground! Great story, and thank you, Brad!!! Everyone, have a WONDERFUL day!
I can completely understand. I was terrified just looking at the pictures...and I'm not afraid of much. I've never been skydiving. I'd like to try it once just for the experience but I would probably chicken out at the last minute. hahaha. That would be a neat conversation starter, that you took off in an airplane but never landed. I have an odd and similar conversation starter. The first time I was ever in an airplane, I was the pilot. I had always dreamed of being a pilot and took aviation in college. The first time I was ever in an airplane, a small Cessna, the instructor made me do everything. It was one of the most terrifying but thrilling moments of my life. I hope you have a great day as well. :)
Holy mackerel!! If someone else had told me this, I wouldn't have believed it! Thanks for making my day, as you always do! God bless!
No kidding. Just the thought of this one terrifies me. :)

Hahahaha. Permanent Tightrope Sudden Death. That's a good one. I suffer from the same thing just looking at the pictures. :)
Oh wow!
Incredible
