Jay Cochrane, famous for his tight rope walking, will once again be performing in Niagara Falls this summer. He will be performing his act between the Niagara Fallsview Casino and the Hilton Hotel and on Saturdays will perform the longest and highest skywalk performed outside of China, from the Niagara Fallsview Casino to the top of the Skylon Tower, beginning June 17. The Saturday walk of 1800 feet and a height of 400 – 600 feet above ground is expected to take between 40 and 50 minutes to complete.
Jay Cochrane performed at Casino Niagara in 2002.
that’s one long walk. i wonder if most tourists will actually stay for the full 40 minutes to see him walk.
a friend and I just happened to be
enjoying dinner at the skylon when our waiter told us about Jay.
what a fantastic view: the Falls and Jay!!! I will never forget the privilege of witnessing such skill.
And to know that he donates his tips to charity. It is uplifting indeed.
your are so cool running away from home and joining the circus…i always wanted to.
