Freddy Nock from Switzerland balances on the ropeway of a cable car leading to Germany's highest mountain, the 9,718- foot Zugspitze, near the southern Bavarian resort of Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Aug. 20. Nock balanced on the 995 meters long rope to break his own world record, as part of a charity event.
A couple of weeks ago I posted about Saimaiti Aishan and his attempt to walk between two hot air balloons. While that was impressive, I have to say that I'm more impressed, or maybe shocked, by Nock in that he did not use a balancing pole or a tether.
