Wallenda to walk on wire 262 feet in the air!

Would you walk on a wire about the diameter of a nickel, suspended 262 feet in the air, a distance of 801 feet with no safety net or harness? Acrobat Nik Wallenda will August 15 at Kings Island!

At 262 feet, the two-time Guinesss World record holder will be higher than the massive new Diamondback roller coaster! This will be the highest Wallenda has ever performed.

Wallenda's history-making walk will take place at 7:00pm and is included free with park admission or season pass.
