One big question....was there a net? Crazy people!!!
 
Do you realize that is a rope that is less than an inch thick? Amazing you can see it.
 
Moreover, I'm pretty sure I heard a news guy say he walked 90 feet of the length blindfolded. :shock:

Based on what a FB friend posted, who was there, the blindfolded walk was between two buildings that were closer together. This occurred after the walk across the river.

That is correct. That was the one with the steep angle. I, too, was there.
 
I'm longing for a walk on the rope! Piiiiiity there are no skyscrapers here, I think I'll go walking the road instead :lol:
