> [@deebo](#): > > just saw an advertisement for this on youtube. It’s on @ 8pm tonight on discovery channel. Anyone watch last night? I think he finally started crossing around 930-945, I kept flipping back to see if he started walking and don’t remember the exact time. It looked pretty windy out there, they had a few angles from above and his chest cam and you could see how much the cable was swaying. ---

All I can remember is seeing the preview for Discovery’s new show “Naked and afraid” and I definately did not need to see that guys ass every commercial break (which by the was every 5 minutes) I was super impressed with Nik walking over, but not with Discovery’s advertising and drawn out scenario. If you ask me, Felix Baumgartner still takes the cake as the craziest mofo to attempt a stunt. ---

I believe this is the same cable or part of the cable they used for niagara falls crossing? I am sure they could sell it to some place that needs a 2 inch thick steel cable as lightly used? lol ---
