A helicopter probably isn't most welcome at 420m up, on a wire!

what a brilliant sentance

Guest: Rob (624 days ago)

that is nuts! and I love the sentence he gets - "doing a free show for children". Bet that taught him a lesson he'll never forget!

Imagine if he'd tried to do that on 9/11. Would've wobbled when the first plane would hit, and the attention would've been taken away from his achievement.

If only video cameras were more readily available in those days - it would've been good to see more than photos

Guest: Matten (627 days ago)

That is the most delightful footage i've seen on BoreMe ever! I live in the big apple right now, so watching this was very giving!

Guest (628 days ago)

Bet he couldn't do that now
