The other day I posted pictures and a video of Jay Cochrane’s Skywalk. That movie was about 30 seconds. I’ve put together a few different movie clips from the same day and made a longer movie. It’s amazing seeing him walk, and this extended movie has him finishing his walk and you can hear the…
I was at Marineland again on Friday and they are making progress with Topple Tower. As you can see by the first picture, a fence has been put in and they are doing some landscaping. The second picture is one I took from up at the Sky Screamer platform. All you can see of Topple…

From the Niagara Falls Review: A Canadian pizza chain is celebrating its 40th anniversary with a bang in Niagara Falls this weekend. Thirty minutes of fireworks are scheduled to be set off at the falls Saturday at 10 p.m. to mark the day. David Whysall, of David Whysall International Fireworks Inc., says people will be…
One of the people who really put Niagara Falls on the map was Blondin. Blondin’s story is told very well in the IMAX movie. There has always been something about Niagara Falls which has brought daredevils and other performances. In our more modern times, the only people like that you see are generally found in…
