From WGRZ Channel 2 in Buffalo (includes video):
Nik Wallenda isn’t the only daredevil wowing crowds with a combination of balance and nerves of steel.
Jay Cochrane, 68, held the first of a series of tightrope walks from the Skylon Tower to the Hilton in downtown Niagara Falls, Ontario.
Cochrane’s walk started at a height of 520 feet, and by the end of his performance he was at an elevation of 581 feet.
