NIAGARA FALLS, NY - JUNE 15: An observation platform on the U.S. side of Niagara Falls is silouetted against extra flood lights used to illuminate Aerialist Nik Wallenda when he walked a tightrope over the falls on June 15, 2012 in Niagara Falls, Canada. Wallenda, 33 and a father of three, is a seventh generation member of the famed Flying Wallendas who trace their roots to 1780 Austria-Hungary, when ancestors traveled as a band of acrobats, aerialists, jugglers, animal trainers and trapeze artists.
