Wow! But, that probably isnt a big deal for that guy because, once you are able to walk a tightrope without falling, it wouldnt matter if you were 10 feet up, or 200 feet up.. in theory.

yeah but looking down when you're 1000ft up is alot different to when you're only 10ft up. Also its gonna be windy as hell up there

well its does make a differce wether its 10 a 100 or 1000 feet up, even though falling from 100 will probably have the same effect as falling from 1000 (ignoring the bigger spot on the sidwalk) if you are a real progressive skier or do anything else that involves alot of fear, u know that it is 80% mental, he had to think about so much and it was a 1 time shot and probably illeagle his nerves were probably off the walls there were so many unknowns and the fact that alot of people were watching, like i said 100% mental, and yes ive decided to only use commas now,

Some guy did a really long tightrope walk over this gorge in China, so nuts. It was like 3000 feet or something.

Wind is the major factor in the difference b/w 100 or 1000 feet..he obviously has though about dieing.

A guy did it between two hot air balloons thousands of feet up with no parachute and no safety line - I saw it on TV years ago. If that's possible, anything is.

everything is mental man, it's all in your head, things like that aren't hard to learn, but our head makes it seem a lot harder because we get scared, the same goes with skiing man, most moves aren't hard if you think about it, but we just get scared

saying 'its all mental' doesn't mean shit. part of things being difficult is them being metally difficult.
