Have you or can you ever imagine yourself walking across a city here in Nigeria. Infact even if am the one in a dream, I would wake up and bind and cast the dream. But not to some other crazy people.....maybe all in the name of making records....I bow for them sha!!

US tightrope walker Nik Wallenda has successfully completed back-to-back high-wire walks above the city of Chicago, watched by thousands of people.

The 35-year-old achieved the two skyscraper crossings without a safety net or a harness.
He first walked up a steep incline between buildings either side of the Chicago River.
Then, blindfolded, he crossed between the two Marina City towers.

  



It took him six minutes 52 seconds to complete the first stage 500ft (152m) above the ground - in winds that were gusting at up to 25mph (40km/h).


He then completed the 94ft between the two Marina City Towers in one minute 17 seconds.
 The stunts were televised with a 10-second delay in case he fell.
 On the ground, thousands cheered Mr Wallenda - a seventh-generation tightrope walker.

Mr Wallenda - again blindfolded - then answered reporters' questions. He has already walked across both the Grand Canyon and the Niagara Falls on tightropes.

The tightrope walks were televised with a 10-second delay in case Nik Wallenda fell, but yet he didn’t fall….what a wonder

Make I hear say e happen for naija
