I saw this live!! Walked out of the subway and looked up!!
-
That Twin Tower walk was talked about and re-broadcast for years after, long before internet existed. I was 10 years old but I only vaguely remember the news broadcast. I was Twenty-One when he did the Eiffel tower walk. I remember watching that one live. A truly amazing performance.
-
I remember hearing about this this was amazing oh my goodness I read the story. 🙏🕊️✌️🙌👍💪🇺🇸💛
-
Thank you Philippe!! We will always love you dear brother. Those towers were put there just for you to write your poetry in the sky. Happy 50th anniversary! ❤❤❤
-
Fabulous sir I watched you. I lived in Philadelphia.
-
Inspiration for all of us mere humans - ✨❤️ ✨
-
Wonderful interview…well done! Thank you I thought it was remarkable he made it across alive one time. When he said he crossed it 8 times that day was inconceivable to me.
-
This is just impossible to comprehend that he somehow overcame every natural human instinct of survival to do this, AND enjoyed himself! Frankly it puts every other stunt ever attempted to shame.
-
Those police officers were going crazy. 😅
-
As a nephew of the late tight-wire walker Volney Lafayette “Bunny” Dryden, I have to wonder if Philippe knew about “Bunny” and his unauthorized walk across the towers of: “Skyride” at the 1933 Chicago World’s Fair?
-
We had Evel knievel, France had Phil Petit.
-
The next year I saw him walk across the wire in the SuperBowl in New Orleans
-
Life is the wire, the rest is just waiting around. Karl Wallenda.
-
He's got diamond ballz. I would pass out just looking at the edge.
-
This guy had a lot of guts, almost to how Nik Wallenda crossed over a volcano, at one point.
-
🙏✌️🙌👍💪💛😍
-
It looks like it was raining!!!😮😮😮
-
Gives me the willies.
-
The documentary about the walk was way more interesting than the crummy movie...
-
It's crazy what some peoples brains are capable of doing
