History was made Friday night when 33 year old Nik Wallenda walked across the Niagra Falls Gorge, on a tight rope. He started in the US, and walked 1800 feet across to Canada... all while balancing 150 feet in the air on a two inch wire. Raised in a family of aerialists, the Flying Wallendas have been at it for decades. But Wallenda said this particular feat was, at times, very challenging. (SOUNDBITE) (English) TIGHT ROPE WALKER NIK WALLENDA SAYING: " Normally I can focus on that cable underneath me, and as it moves underneath me, I focus on that and my body follows it. Well there's no way to do that because if I looked down at the cable , there was water moving everywhere, and if I looked up there was heavy mist blowing in front of my face, so it was a very unique, and weird sensation." What's next for Wallenda? Look out for him somewhere above the Grand Canyon. Julie Noce, Reuters
