Quote

Sgt Charles Daniels: ...I observed the tight rope dancer... because you couldn't call him a walker... approximately half-way between the two towers. I personally figured I was watching something that somebody else would never see again in the world. Thought it was once in a lifetime.

When we observed that he wasnt about to come in
00:00:04.086 --> 00:00:06.045
because he seemed to be enjoying it so much
00:00:06.172 --> 00:00:09.966
we mentioned the fact to his associate that if he did not come in
00:00:10.001 --> 00:00:13.219
we would have a helicopter pluck him up off the wire
00:00:13.345 --> 00:00:16.973
At which time his associate
00:00:17.099 --> 00:00:21.144
spoke to him in French being that hes a Frenchman
00:00:21.027 --> 00:00:23.229
Philippe you know
00:00:23.355 --> 00:00:26.941
And he said The police are going to dislodge you and you should stop
00:00:27.067 --> 00:00:32.078
And I was I was I was madly enraged by that but also it saved my life
00:00:32.907 --> 00:00:35.867
There is somebody out there on a tightrope walk
00:00:35.993 --> 00:00:40.246
between the two towers of the World Trade Center right at the tippy top
00:00:41.415 --> 00:00:44.292
I personally figured I was watching something
00:00:44.418 --> 00:00:48.296
that somebody else would never see again in the world
00:00:48.422 --> 00:00:51.382
I thought it was once in a lifetime
