Nik Wallenda, 'King of the High Wire' ,doesn't know fear. As a
seventh generation of the legendary Great Wallendas, he grew up
performing, entertaining, and pushing the boundaries of gravity and
balance. When Nik was four years old, he watched a video from 1978
of his great grandfather, Karl Wallenda, walking between the towers
of the Condado Plaza Hotel in Puerto Rico, stumbling and falling to
his death because of a faulty balance pole. When Nik heard his
father quote his great-grandfather - 'Life is on the wire,
everything else is just waiting' - the words resonated deep within
his soul and he vowed to be a hero like Karl Wallenda. Balance is
the theme of Nik's life: between his work and family, his faith in
God and artistry, his body and soul. It resonates from him when
performing and when no one is looking. When walking across Niagara
Falls, he prayed aloud the entire time, and to keep his lust for
glory and fame in check, Nik returned to the site of his
performance and spent three hours cleaning up trash left by the
crowd. Nik Wallenda is an entertainer who wants to not only thrill
hearts, but to change hearts for Christ. Christ is the balance pole
that keeps him from falling.
