This could be filed under the heading, 'Taking Reality TV To The Extreme'. It could also go under 'C' for 'Crazy'.

A death defying stunt is going to take place on TV. If you can stand to watch, tune in to the Discovery Channel on November 2.

Daredevil Nik Wallenda is walking a tightrope between two skyscrapers in Chicago. Apparently this is not enough of a thrill for Nikolas, so he's doing it blindfolded.

If you don't know who he is, this is the type of work he's accustomed to. He's known as 'The King Of The Wire'.

He holds seven Guinness World Records for various acrobatic feats, but is best known as the first person to walk a tightrope stretched directly over Niagara Falls on June 15, 2012.

This is not his first time on TV. His last high wire televised stunt drew an audience of 13 million.
