Watching the documentary about Philippe Petit made me aware of such a crazy, unique, and incredible event. I can hardly believe that someone would have the courage to walk on a tightrope so high in the air, while knowing the police will arrest him. In addition it must have been really hard to plan everything out, but it is great that he was able to get the rope up to the top of one tower and across to the other tower. I wonder what it was like to be Petit when he was on the wire at the time. I am so glad I had the opportunity to spend an evening with my class watching this extraordinary event get planed and performed.
