Wallenda, who made headlines when he crossed a gorge in the Grand Canyon last summer, told the “Today” show he already has plans for more challenges next year. He said he hopes to walk on another rope 600 feet high and 1,000 feet long, but that's not all...
"I've never done a headstand on a wire before,” he said.
