But two people did.

The video clip on BBC News is more than hair-raising!

If you don’t do it when you,re young you,ll never do it and some will always regret the things they didn,t do.
It’s what my children were told all their lives ,though motor racing was about as dangerous as it got and motorbike off road trials .
Only one broken collar bone ,the same day their granny broke her hip falling off a ladder in her house.
Risks in everything

They have a movie/documentary on Netflix. That's what they do. They're daredevils. I think they just did it for the heck of it and he wanted to propose. There's nothing more to it. That's what they do for a living.

Scary enough going up on lift and being at top looking down! It was even scarier up The Twin Towers. You could only go up one of them can't remember which one now. These 2 people are lunatics!!!!!

Did anyone see the documentary on that French guy who walked between the two WTCs on a tight rope? I watched between my fingers.
He teased the police by lying back on the rope.
Later they made a film about it.
