Chinese tightrope walker falls
Now THIS is a bad ass!
Aisikaier, a tightrope walker in China, is lucky to be alive after falling off a more than 650-foot high tightrope during a performance in Hunan Province, the BBC reports, relaying a report from China State Television.
Fortunately, the blindfolded acrobat was near the end of the 2,300-foot backwards walk when he fell, so the drop wasn’t as large as it could have been, according to NBC News.
ABC News adds that Aisikaier, who’s a sixth-generation tightrope walker, said he was feeling faint before the fall.
Soooo much better than this guy! Can’t believe they wasted prime time air time on him!
CHINESE TIGHTASS WALKS TO HIS FALL! 🙁

I thought everything in China was tight? Maybe not the rope?
I feel faint watching him feel faint
