Nik Wallenda Walks Across Pittsburgh (Photo credit: jstrak) |
Canadian officials gave final approval to daredevil Nik Wallenda's bid
to tightrope across Niagara Falls on Wednesday. The Canadian Parks
Commission decided to grant Wallenda a one-time exception to the
longtime "stunting" ban which prohibits such activities at the Falls.
Tourism officials on both sides of the border believe that Wallenda's
crossing, which is likely to occur in mid-June and will be covered live
on the Discovery Channel, is likely to boost tourism in the region.
