Tightrope walking

What do you think when you imagine a man walking on a wire higher than 10 stories high? A French wire walker named Philippe Petit walked over many structures from Notre Dame to Sydney, Australia, to New York. Through the things he has done, people may think he is crazy. However, Petit and I think that there is nothing crazy about what he has done. I believe the people/society thinks he is crazy. They see this man up hundreds of feet walking across a wire over famous architectures. Notre Dame

watched it again the next day, at a better time and with more sleep, to help me clarify why I think this is a very good but not great film. “Man on Wire,” James Marsh’s 2008 documentary, chronicles the story of Philippe Petit, an eccentric French tightrope walker who dreamed of performing on a wire between the Twin Towers.

Man on wire which was set in 1947 directed by James Marsh about a french high wire artist Philippe Petit who is fascinated by New Yorks trade Centre where he has strung a six metre tight rope between the twin tires and walked across it without any fear. The documentary is about Petit 's daring attempt, the aftermath and about his friends and the people who helped him achieve his life goals. Some consider it “the artistic crime of the century” The director has used many techniques to captivate audiences

Circus performers are people of great courage. They have to make a living out of entertaining people that pay good money to watch them and want to get their money's worth. They have a lot of pressure from that, as well as peer pressure from their fellow performers. Not only do they have pressure from that, they have to worry about the very acts being preformed from playing with swords and fire to hanging from a wire hundreds of feet in the air. If their not focused on what they are doing, they can

French tightrope walker Phillippe Petit who in 1974, strung a rope connecting the buildings of the world trade center then tightrope walked across it. The movie, directed by Robert Zemeckis (who Rapke called “Bob”), starred Joseph Gordon-Levitt, who, much to my surprise, did all of his own stunts and speaks fluent French. His acting performance paired with the fact that he had to switch off speaking French and speaking English with a French accent while also balancing tediously on a tightrope was nothing

for what felt like eons. Despite sharing all our secrets I still felt like she didn’t really know me, and that she didn’t really even care to learn. We were currently trapezing down the rundown train tracks that cut across town. They acted like tightrope and us the acrobats. It was forbidden to walk on them, even though they hadn’t been used in years. This is still something that baffles me to this day. Our goal was to make it to A&W

It has been customary for me to begin these entries with words of how interesting it has been, and unfortunately, nothing has changed. I have had a very challenging and interesting week. It started off with trivial car issues. My car broke down and I have been renting a car since last Saturday. Sunday the Men’s Choir at the Church celebrated their 18th Anniversary. I was asked by one of the members if I could stay until the program. I had already planned to go home, take a nap, and then return

her. Her hand started to cramp up from holding the necklace so hard. Crunch. Heidi turned slowly. A dark figure stood about ten feet away from her. She panicked as she heard the footsteps behind her getting quicker. “Who’s there?” she said, still walking. The figure was silent. Only the sounds of heavy breathing came from its mouth. “What do you want?” The breathing got louder as the figure moved closer. Heidi let go of her necklace, and turned her head one

United States Armed Forces are only for the rough and tough. I learned about the military through commercials on television, my family members who veterans, and recruiters walking are thought my neighborhood and at school when I was a child. “Join the most powerful military in the world,” said a military poster I had seen walking home from work one day and the “Be All That You Can Be” Army commercials played while I was watching television. I believed that if I was rough and tough enough to join the

Autonomous technology has been slowly rising up in the market, beginning with automatic stop brakes to parking assists. The one thing technology researchers are trying to advance on is full-on, automatic driving with no manual backing. Although this technology is not on the market yet, it will be in the near future. Google specifically has started their own self-driving project six years ago, introducing their own line of autonomous vehicles they call Google Blobs. The main reason self-driving vehicles
