I was wondering, if you are not familiar with skywire, a man is going to walk across the grand canyon(like walking in a rope) and there are no nets or anything. What if he actually falls? Would they show it on tv?

Not that weird. If I was on a tightrope in the middle of the Grand Canyon, I’d be praying pretty hard also.

There is probably a delay, so if he fell, they would pan away or go to commercial before it showed on our TV. I was watching because it was on the TV at the resturaunt I had dinner at. Pretty freaky stuff.
