From the Niagara Falls Review:
Famed wirewalker Jay Cochrane still wants to make Niagara Falls his retirement project, but a proposed walk across the river could be in the works for 2009 instead of next year.
After another summer spent performing in Niagara Falls - his third in six years - Cochrane was hopeful the Niagara Parks Commission would let him be the first man in more than a century to walk a wire across the falls.
He pointed to the summer of 2008 for the event, which he predicted could attract a million people to the city.
To that end, he said he was preparing a detailed presentation for the parks commission that would answer any and all questions.
“This is something that takes time, and has to be done very, very thoroughly,” he told The Review in August. “You’ll only get one opportunity to do this correctly.”
The good news is, the commission hasn’t said no to the proposal.
That’s because they haven’t seen it yet.
Don’t forget to sign the petition!
