  • what if some1 threw something at the wire, while he was on it! lol

  • did anyone else think that it said hire wire wanking? or am i just on the wrong website.

  • Chuck Norris can do this without the pole! 

  • @CheyenneBlah Chuck Norris can do this without the wire...

  • Aaaaaand this is where the fucking birds show up to mess up the guy xD

  • petit did this shit across 2 towers without a comfy net to fall into if he did

  • Chuck Norris can do this without a High Wire blindfolded ..

  • @kThaii you are wrong!!!! chuck norris can do this blindfolded while ropes on fire on his hands!

  • lol he took 11 mins to walk on a 30mm wire i take only 7 mins.

    on ground.

  • phillipe petit could do that shit blindfolded

  • holy poo

  • song used please?? =)

  • Extreme?? Hardly. It doesn't get more extreme than Petit on the towers in '74 :-).

  • @neomuttley yeah didnt that guy die too?

  • @TheUndert0ker He's not dead (yet). But, he's kinda old.

  • some idiot americans leavin comments on this...is it harder or easyer to use the pole....seriuosly.

  • dude, quit your stupid "idiot americans" comment. you're no better than anyone else, you retard.

  • how would you feel if I said "some drunk Irish idiots"? you are a fool.

  • Comment removed

  • What am I talking about?  You said "idiot americans". Why does anyone's nationality need to come into this conversation. You were insinuating Americans are dumb....yes, some of them are, but there sure are a lot of lazy drunk Guinness drinking Irish fucks too, you know.

  • Like I said, why does natonality play into it? The next time I see some drunks laying in the street, I am going to say "idiot drunk Irish fools". How about that?

  • haha i wouldnt give a fuck! alot of us are drunken messes so wouldn really care tbh!

  • and likewise a lot of americans are idiots...it's not that I object to you pointing that out because it's largely true, it's just I didn't see the need to bring nationality into the discussion.

  • its because some of the people who made the comments were american, thats why i said it. get over it like seriously.

  • why don't you get over it, you fucking Irish fucktard? go drink some Bailey's and fucking fall asleep in the gutter, you lazy fuck. That's the only thing you're good for...

  • slamartist.... W O R L D - R E C O R D...insane 150 feet gainer!

  • I never understood, does the big stick help them, or make it more difficult?

    Can someone please answer?

  • it makes it more difficult try it yourself and see

  • It helps them balance

  • Does it make it harder or easier?!

  • It's easier because they can balance better, and if it made walking more difficult they wouldn't use it.

  • It makes it easier once you know how to use it. I do a little wire walking myself and when I first learned I didn't use anything extra to balance. When I first tried it with a bar it was really, really difficult because I wasn't used to it. They're really heavy so one of the problems I had was really controlling it and not letting it tip and then pull me off the wire. However, once you can get control of the bar and can keep the bar balanced, it makes it a lot easier.

  • haha guy in the red clothes, what a swagger

  • and you can't do shit.

  • He should do it with his eyes close

    then i would be really impressed

    asians can do anything..

  • Go watch the documentary "Man on Wire", this wont seem that impressive once you have seen someone walk between the twin towers.

  • That guy was completely crazy though, still a good documentary though.

  • yeah he was, mad really.

  • Even if they were electric he wouldnt get shocked because he's not earthed while standing up there. Same effect with pigeons and birds sitting on electric cable.

  • The word you are looking for is "Grounded"

  • that was awesome

  • High wire how come he don't get a electric shock

  • They aren't electric wires.

  • even if they was you have to touch earth to get a shock

  • 0:54 "oh look i see a penny"

  • umm yer ok smart ass lets see you walk acroos that aye. yer thats right u wont u pussy shit

  • this was a worldrecord setting if i'm not wrong he stayed 24 days up there

  • doesnt beat walking the world trade center...

  • i wonder what going through his head.

  • What is extreme about this? Try tightrope walking the grand canyon or something or a cord attached between two planes or something then I'll call it extreme. This seems average at best imo.

  • lol ok try this out a french men i forget his name and date got a wire between the twin towers and walked on it. he was on it for a record of 4 hours just hangin about wial the police tried to talk him off

  • yea they made a movie about it called man on wire lol look it up might be a bit extreme lol

  • Once you're high enough to die if you fall it all seems rather academic.

  • lol the 2 planes one hahahaha

  • yeah if it was extreme it would be LAND not WATAH (on purpose)

  • Safety

  • What song is this playing?

  • surly that long pole is not helping, just extra weight

  • i don't think these guys even need to balance themselves because the heavy pole lowers their center of gravity. All they gotta do is step on the rope.

  • wht if he just fel nd racked himself ..ouch...

  • If you want to make this even more extreme you turn it into High Wire Running, then maybe add fire and bees.

  • hahahahhahahahaha

  • Or maybe they could run on Electricity wires?

  • you are so generous:p

    but funny!

  • @BinkieMcFartnuggets jackass 4

  • i wonder how many tons of presure there is on that wire

  • I forgot I put that there

  • good

    we don't need to build any bridge anymore

  • Lol, I like how their feet goes to the drum beat...haha. That one dude was just trotting along all cool..haha.

  • don't usually believe in chain comments, but this one is pretty cool. u don't need to do it, but when u read it, u might smile. :)

    There are 20 angels in this world

    10 are sleeping

    9 are playing

    1 is reading this

    put this on 4 video comments within 15 mins,if u do, sum one u love will surprise u sum how!! If u don't , u will lose ur love.!

    Sorry but that is one thing i wouldnt risk losing

  • thats not even close to that guy who walked a tight rope across the twin towers.

  • Philip Petit, he's a legend.

  • yeah hes from france or something right? that book "The man who walked between the towers" is one of my favorite books ever!

  • that's so easy to do...

  • that is so cool

  • And I want it to be a high voltage line!

  • hehe lol

  • i wish i could do that

  • so says the guy who jumped off

  • oh mah god bravery maximum for going over WATER

  • who cares???? the point is that he was able to balance all the way across.

    Fag

  • i was complimenting the tightrope walker moron, lrn 2 read

  • a fall from that height would be like hitting concrete

  • no not even close

    it'd have to be soo much higher...many people cliff jump from much higher than this

  • Its all in the landing buddy.

  • thats amazing!

  • the man who walked between the 2 twin tower is wayyyyyyy better than u 0.o

  • His name is Philippe Petit..... and yeah, he is way better. But his style is about art and poetry. This seems to be a competition. Philippe would never compete.

  • Agreed. These people are athletes, Philippe is an artist. Both have their merits.

  • Actually, Petit would have participated in this and was in fact originally going to. He later decided that he is simply too old now to keep up though.

    This is indeed an athletic competition, not art, but many of the folks in this are artistic performers - highwire, skywalkers, tightwire dancers, etc. Many did this to help bring attention to the art of it.

    Of course, once they signed on, they all wanted to win. Like actors and athletes, all highwire walkers have rather impressive egos to stroke.

  • wowy that is awsome!

  • You should meet up with hexasschortle. She LOVES to give blowjobs, I hear.

  • EXTREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEME1!!­!

  • thats not extreme. if it was there would be sharks at the bottom or spikes. and wind. that would be EXTREEEMEE!

  • they made it seem like the pole made it harder. it actually makes it much easier because it lowers ur center of gravity. just dont lean.

  • holy crap I'd be so scared and nervous if I was him. D:

  • wtf..thats insain how u could some be able to do that look inpossible

  • It's safety net underneth of him.

  • r there any safety wires or harnesses???

  • They weren't too far over the water, and the parts where the line was over land, they had a safety net. So they couldn't get too badly harmed.

  • omg my b day is may 3

  • what would posses someon to do this?

  • adrenaline

  • simply because he loves it.

  • O  M G

  • I wanna see them walk WITHOUT a pole... LOL.

  • they have water so it does not hurt then thewy have a net under them when they walk over land

  • Insane stuff.

  • dang homie i poop my pants and jump into the water ">

  • lolololololololol that was crazy

  • Those guys were ninja's @-@

  • This accomplishes nothing. What a loser. Get a life. Stop risking your life and develop a skill.

  • Posting negative comments on YouTube accomplishes nothing. What a loser. Get a life. Stop wasting your life and develop a skill.

  • like tight rope walking??

  • HEY EVERYONE Look at this Hypocrite posting Negative Comments. What a Hexasschorthole!

  • lol well played

  • Thanks Scovin. I don't think we will be hearing from hexasschorthole again.

  • I feel sorry for you.

  • Notice how people are thumbing down your comments. Just... just stop saying things.

    PS: Your amalgamation of my username and the word 'asshole' was really really really really clever.

  • Says the one watching videos on youtube.

  • If you have nothing to offer the world, give this a try. You have to fall eventually right? Might as well give everyone some entertainment when you go SPLAT!

    Or

    Go to college, grow your brain, develop into a useful part of society through persistant hard work.

    Or

    Go splat into the pavement.

  • College sounds pretty good.

  • College sounds better than splat

  • Look at my channel. I am already a useful part of society. And scovin's 'lol well played' was a reply to my comment, not yours. I don't think anybody would congratulate you on 'hexasschorthole', more than just look embarassed for you. Let's end this now, okay?

  • your channel embarassed you. Was that you? You look so lonely I will leave you alone but, first I have to ask how do you males from the united kingdom keep reproducing if you are all homosexual? Do the gals all just go on a holiday to another country and come back pregnant? Do you think your father is really your hetero, biological dad? Or just pretending?

  • You're still living in a world where homosexuality is an insult? How curious.

    Well, I'm thoroughly bored of you now. Goodbye.

  • No, I am supporting you an your boyfriens rights wholeheartedly. You thought I was INSULTING YOU?

    Well, I'm thoroughly bored of you now. Goodbye.

  • i can tell from your name which optino you have chosen

  • reluntlessPosuer, what's an optino? Perhaps spectacles made in Italy?

  • You just can't stop being a dick, can you? It's like a natural kneejerk reaction for you.

  • I suppose you know ALOT about jerkin' yourself, you Welsh choad.

  • bad pun

  • Okay punenoneum

  • Shut up. Nobody likes you. Stop. Talking. You are quite simply one of the most vile, unpleasant and deluded human beings I've ever come across in my entire life, and I don't know why you get to me so much, but you irritate me beyond believe. There, you've won. Happy?

  • COOL

  • lol how it looks pretty real to me

  • wtc it was a national competition. How is it fake?

  • over the water an sefty net? naaaaa, noobs

  • It doesn't seem so extremely high to me. They should make it electrical wire to make thing more interesting.

  • lool

  • I heard the winner got slapped and spit on by the runnerup.

  • This is boooooring;

    He never falls, hence doesn't die either.....and all I wanted was blood, gore and mashed up brain!!!

    sobb, YouTube has let me down again

    ;)

  • see this if u wanna see a death skywalker

    watch?v=eWrN82ddVBY

  • ole12boy

    Thanks but no thanks, I was being sarcastic, so I won't bother looking at REAL death!

    It'll come my way soon enough anyway..

    :)

  • lol if i did that i would fall off =)

  • no,nets are not for "sissys"are for ppl who wanna live for some more years than those who don't use a net

  • nets are 4 sissys

  • thats nuts! crazy japs

  • korean not japanese

  • Pfft. I could do that...

  • get a free itouch see my video now

    100% real

  • does the pole make it harder or easier?

  • The pole helps your balance.

  • Easier. Lowers your center of gravity, making it easier to balance, and increases your angular moment of inertia, giving you more time to recover. In fact, if you lower your COG below the wire, you can't even fall unless you slip - like those little rocking birds you can buy for your office desk.

  • that is pretty amazing...i could never do anything like that....mayb one day...but not today =(

  • they have a net..... any 1 could try it

  • Nice.

  • how whould you like tohit your balls that high up.then to realy add insult to injury you fuckin fall and body splash from 60 ft up.damn

  • if u live..
