  • If you do a little more research about Philippe, you learn that he agreed to explain all of his methods to the police in exchange for a dismissal of the charges.

    I think you are missing the greater point about Philippe's feat. His act brought joy to the lives of many. I suggest you watch the movie rather than dismiss the man as a criminal.

  • The only thing I don't like about YouTube is that people can make stupid remarks like Alfrunk has done here. This is one of the great documentaries ever made. It's moving and heartbreaking at the same time. It deservedly won the Oscar this year. It's about so much more than wire-walking.

  • man on wire was terrible. the man was an egotistical asshole who used his friends. the movie was incredibly boring and simple. i could tell you in one sentence what happens: A man plans years to walk between skyscrapers and then does it. The feat was neat, the lass was an ass, and there was no reason to use 90 minutes to drag this out with annoying commentaries by all those involved, especially the lead dick.

  • Gymnopedie no.1 by Satie is such a beautiful song.

    Such a pity it was overused like you said.

  • i liked the movie but i wish it had better video footage of his walk besides that it was great

  • they're not

  • It's typically like this in most of their videos lol.

  • are these 2 married? im new to this show sorry if its been asked a million times

  • yeah i liked it, but it played that one song over and over. but still that aside, great eye opneing documentary. for sure this will win best documentary at the oscars.

  • Evidently you are quite young and naive. Please grow up a bit before making such a ridiculous claim.

  • No, no, your observation that there is overt

    sexual chemistry is laughable and disturbing.
