[@suerinke3703]

That was absolutely AMAZING! I LOVED that he was praying and praising.

Jeez I remember when he did this! I remember watching live on my couch. Just under 2 weeks after I ended my freshman year of high school. God I remember this. Can't believe it's been 3 years already.

​​​​@@seekinggodfirst754I have mixed feelings about this, I personally dont think God wants us taking unnecessary risks with our lives either

[@seekinggodfirst754]

@@brendaallen5842 He doesn't! The only scripture I can think of (but I'm not too sure it is completely applicable) is Jesus' retort when He was tempted to throw Himself off a cliff: "Do not test the Lord your God."

It shows the creativity of human being and rationality to meet the natural phenomenon. This adventure proves that man can do anything in future..... Hats Up..... for his great effort

[@siebrenbe79]

1:25 Just imagine if he fell off..

[@wirlaway]

how do you prepare for gusts of wind? not to mention 1500ft is long.

[@ChristopherLaRock]

Karl Wallenda died in 1978, not 1973. The reporter screwed up.

[@elcaminodelrey]

There's nothing more for u to prove, Nik. This is so great and stunning! Almost lost for words! Seen this video three or four times now all in all, and I nearly gettin' blown away every time I watch it. Actually, I was stayin' up the morning (local time) when this was broadcastet here in Europe. Just had to see this.

[@barbaradavis4867]

Notice how ABC managed to not report on him praising God the whole time!!

Do not put God to the test, and instead he should have been skydive trained, and wearing a parachute to be prepared to do a basejump

I have great admiration for this fine fellow. It makes my fears seem trivial and inspires me. God has smiled on this young man because his heart is in the right place. But I do wish he would quit while he's ahead. Loved the article in the June 2013 issue of guideposts magazine,

[@mradders1256]

anyone seen man on a wire. French dude in the 70's walked between the tops of the world trade centre buildings in new york illegally and stayed on the wire for over an hour walking between towers. He even layed down for a rest. Got arrested but didnt know what they were arresting him for. Apart from trespassing i suppose. That was a crazy thing to watch. Couldnt believe this nik managed this in those gusty wind conditions bloody nerves of steel man. well done.

[@mirandarichard122]

I can remember watching this live with my dad

[@Zionplaysrivals]

[@briana1947]

Nerves of steel. Incredible! Congrats to him!

[@kingkaga898]

And this is news. Someone walking across the grand canyon on a tightrope with no safety net or harness isn't an ordinary event.

[@blueravenchick]

Why should God protect someone who put himself in obvious danger to begin with?

[@kingkaga898]

The man walking the tightrope is a Christian, and he talks about his Christian faith. We're Christians talking about our Christian faith. It's not "shoving it down your throat" just because you disagree with it. You can leave the video and stop commenting anytime you want, nobody's forcing you to stay. Heck, you don't even know what hypocrite means.
