Nik Wallenda, a professional daredevil descended from the famed Wallenda circus family, is ready to take on his toughest and most dangerous challenge yet - to walk unaided and without a harness on a tightrope across the Grand Canyon. Wallenda will tightrope walk higher than he's ever attempted before at 1,500 feet above the Little Colorado River, a height greater than the Empire State Building. Last year Wallenda became the first person to tightrope walk directly over Niagara Falls from the U.S. to Canada at a height of 200 feet. This once in a lifetime event will showcase Nik's remarkable skill and talent, and his nerves of steel.
