Michael Grbich Brooklyn Bridge Crossing

The weather forecast called for cold and rain. Despite months of obstacles, Michael Grbich arrived at the Brooklyn Bridge at 9am on Sunday, November 26, 2008 determined to tap dance to the other side. He later reflected, I have overcome far bigger obstacles in life than a little bad weather. My motto has been to get out of comfort zones, to take risks. I had to show up today. The risk paid off. Michael was rewarded with an unseasonably sunny and warm day. He triumphantly crossed the bridge cheered on along the way by onlookers. It was his second bridge crossing to promote his cause.

Bridges to Cross is the vision of artist, educator, and health advocate, Michael Grbich. He is committed to promoting good health and healthy living by tap dancing across historic bridges across the country. His campaign began soon after his triumphant crossing of The Golden Gate Bridge on November 18, 2007 to celebrate his 75th birthday. On November 26,2008, Michael tap danced across The Brooklyn Bridge.
