Good Luck to Nik Wallenda

     Good luck to 33-year old Nik Wallenda. He will attempt a tightrope walk over Niagara Falls, Friday night, June 15, 2012. He will be walking on a 2-inch wire nearly 200 feet above the falls, a distance of 1800 feet from the USA to Canada.
     Wallenda follows in the footsteps of the Great Blondin, who walked on a tightrope over the Niagara Gorge below the falls in 1859.
