Nik Wallenda of the Flying Wallenda's fame, broke two Guiness Word Records when he first biked and then walked across a high wire between the East and West Towers at Atlantis on Paradise Island in the Bahamas.
Before a large crowd of tourists, and filmed by the Discovery Channel, Wallenda negotiated some gusty winds which delayed the walk by twenty minutes.
Tonight at 5:00 PM, Wallenda will walk a wire between the Cove Towers for a distance of 1,100 feet. Later this year, he intends to cross the Grand Canyon.
Wallenda is the great grandson of Karl Wallenda, the patriarch of the Flying Wallendas Circus family, who died in 1978 when he fell from the wire in Puerto Rico.
