Man on Wire
 |
|
In 1974, a young French wire walker gave New Yorkers the shock — and show — of their lives, when he spent an hour on a tightrope strung between the twin towers of the World Trade Center. This documentary examines exactly how he managed to pull the stunt off in spite of the tight security at the WTC.
