- Skywire_Live abstract "Skywire Live with Nik Wallenda was a Discovery Channel special that aired on June 23, 2013. The special was billed as a highwire walk across "the majestic Grand Canyon".[citation needed] Interpretations varied as to whether the actual location – the Little Colorado River Gorge in Navajo territory outside Grand Canyon National Park's borders – was truly part of the Grand Canyon.[citation needed]Highwire artist Nik Wallenda had been planning to walk across the canyon since 2008, but put the plan on hold first due to logistical difficulties and then to highwire walk over Niagara Falls in 2012.[citation needed] After his success at Niagara, he accelerated plans to cross the canyon.[citation needed] In March 2013, Wallenda and Discovery came to terms on television rights for the walk.[citation needed]To prepare, Wallenda practiced in his home town of Sarasota, Florida in heavy winds[citation needed], including during Tropical Storm Andrea.[citation needed] On June 23, he successfully completed the walk without safety devices in approximately 23 minutes, making him the first person to tightrope walk across a Grand Canyon area gorge.[citation needed] At 1,500 feet (460 m), it was the highest walk of his career. Afterwards, Wallenda said it was more difficult than he had expected.[citation needed]Skywire Live aired live in over 200 countries worldwide.[citation needed] It was a ratings success in the United States, generating Discovery's highest-ever rating for a live broadcast.[citation needed] The show also generated a lot of interest of social media, with Wallenda's public display of his Christian faith being a focal point.[citation needed]".
