I've seen the video played over and over, and it replays in my head constantly. To be able to walk in his exact footsteps is an extremely huge honor, and I did this for him as much as I did it for my family to get some closure too.

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

It's Niagara Falls. It's one of the most beautiful natural wonders in the world. Who wouldn't want to walk across it?

One of the things I enjoy is the challenge of Mother Nature.

I'm facing Niagara Falls - the wind and the mist and the dark and the peregrine falcons - and I'm going to stay focused on the other side.

I have permits to be the first person in the world to walk across the Grand Canyon so that's a process we'll start working on. I'd say within three to five years I'll accomplish that as well.

One thing that was passed on from generation to generation in my family, over seven generations in 200 years, was never give up. That's the way we live.
