It might be rare for the State Legislature to approve something that legitimately can be called death-defying, but final approval was given Wednesday permitting a member of the legendary Flying Wallendas to cross Niagara Falls on a tightrope.
“I’m thrilled to death … It is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity,” Nik Wallenda told The Buffalo News.
