Daredevil Nik Wallenda plans to walk on moving Orlando Eye

NEW YORK, April 14 (UPI) — Nik Wallenda has announced his next major death-defying feat will take place on Florida's soon-to-open Orlando Eye. The daredevil said at a New York press conference Monday that he will attempt to walk on top of the 400-foot tall observation wheel without a tether or wire while it is moving on April 29. The Orlando Eye forms part of the I-Drive 360 entertainment complex, which will celebrate its grand opening this month. "When I heard about the Eye, I just had this vision of how cool it could be to tackle it and on top of that it's just really an amazing structure to behold. There are so many [actual] moving parts to this walk that I think people are going to enjoy watching it as much as I'm going to enjoy taking part in it," Wallenda said.
