From the Niagara Falls Review:
Daredevil Dean Sullivan is back in town.
Sullivan filmed two stunts this month in which he used his face-first rappelling technique to jump from the top of the Niagara gorge, near the Horseshoe Falls.
“(Wednesday’s) was great. It was awesome. It was fantastic. It took me a couple seconds,” he said.
“It was one [...]

From the Niagara Falls Review:
Gene Sullivan’s on Team Jesus.
It says so on the back of his blue golf shirt. The white lettering on the back proclaims his faith loudly. So does the red cross on the front, emblazoned with a man on a motorcycle alongside the words “Jump for Jesus.”
