High-wire daredevil鈥檚 Taiwan ambition
Print Edition
CHINA’S high-wire daredevil Adili Wuxor is to attempt to cross the Taiwan Strait.
“I have planned a tightrope walk across the Taiwan Strait for years,” the 44-year-old Uygur said. “It will be the first high-wire stunt above the sea.”
Adili, who is taking part in demonstration events at the Chinese Ethnic Games in Ordos, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, said that the 4,800-meter high-wire walk would not only be a career challenge, but also an opportunity to enhance the exchanges between both sides of the Taiwan Strait.
Adili, the seventh generation of a high-wire walking family from the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, has several records listed with the Guinness World Records organization. His feats include high-wire walks across the Yangtze River in 13 minutes and 48 seconds and between two peaks of Hengshan Mountain in central China’s Hunan Province, the longest walking distance on a 1,399-meter-long wire at a height of 436 meters.
