Nik Wallenda Grand Canyon Walk
 
This has been giving me the willies since I saw him being interviewed on the Today Show next to the site. I can't even stand the thought of watching Nik Wallenda attempt this walk across the Grand Canyon. What do the rest of you think?

Totally watching! Can't wait for him to get started. The idea of wind gusts totally freak me out, though.

Turned it on after True Blood, once I knew it was safe to watch. Thank goodness he made it! Yikes!

Oh he made it? Thank goodness indeed! I don't remember what show I was watching-it was either Border Wars or Alaska State Troopers-but they kept showing ads for his walk and just the thought of it made me queasy. I don't like heights, or ropes (walking is okay though:P).

I was nervous just watching that! Good for him.

I did read some newspaper articles however that it actually wasn't the Grand Canyon, but a nearby gorge.

I watched the re-broadcast of it. I was intrigued by it but if i had watched when it was live my anxiety would have been through the roof. Only watched it when I knew he was successful.

I thought this was a very good thing for Christians to see/hear. I am not that sort of believer, but his declarations of faith as he crossed were nice.

Personally, I enjoy faith declarations from the ground.
