On August 7th 1974 French tightrope walker Philippe Petit stepped out on a high wire illegally rigged between New York's World Trade Center twin towers then the world's tallest buildings. After nearly an hour of performing on the wire 1 350 feet above the sidewalks of Manhattan he was arrested. This fun and spellbinding documentary chronicles Philippe Petit's "highest" achievement.
