From the Buffalo News: We understand Nik Wallenda’s desire to wire walk across Niagara Falls without a tether. We really do. The thrill of performing and watching a death-defying stunt becomes a bit less thrilling when it’s not actually “death defying” because the daredevil is basically dragging a leash to keep him from accidentally plummeting…
