I have never in my life walked with a harness. The weight of the tether, makes it feel like I'm dragging an anchor behind me. ↗

My great-grandfather, Karl Wallenda, was my biggest hero in life, my biggest inspiration behind everything I do. ↗

To do this walk, I believe it's around 2,000 feet, to go from the U.S. to Canada. I would train walking a wire almost 8,000 feet, to overtrain for this. ↗

We train very hard under windy conditions. I've actually walked a wire in my backyard with 90-mile-an-hour winds. ↗

What I'm doing is a natural wonder. If not, there'd be 150 people behind me on the wire. ↗

My favourite restaurant of all time is Mildreds on London's Lexington Street. It's a little vegetarian restaurant and is really fun and healthy, too. It was the first place I went to in London and really liked. That was 20 years ago, and it is still my favourite. ↗
