After weather delays wirewalk, Cochrane ready to go

    From the Niagara Falls Review:

    Wirewalker Jay Cochrane is ready to go – and if the weather co-operates today as expected – he will perform the first of his 20-storey walks this summer in the Fallsview district near the Skylon Tower.

    Wednesday’s rain prevented the 63-year-old world famous wirewalker from performing on America’s Fourth of July holiday, but it didn’t dampen his spirits.

    “I thought I might be able to do a little Mary Poppins with my umbrella,” he told The Review in a telephone interview Wednesday.

    “I have my walking shoes on and I’m ready to go.”

    Technical problems delayed Cochrane’s walk last Saturday and weather has played a factor earlier this week.

    “The weather is supposed to be beautiful (today). Nice and sunny and the temperature in the 70s so I’m ready.”
