The title on the cover of this movie says it all, "Exhilarating." Why wouldn't a man, literally walking on a wire strung between the Twin Towers, not be exhilarating. Philippe Petit, the man on the wire, wanted to do something out of the ordinary, something the world hasn't seen before, so he decided to spend lots of time planning out how he was going to be able to carry out this task. On the day of the execution, his team and himself had to carefully get to the top without getting noticed by security, at one point, when a guard walked in on them, they thought it had all ended, but to their surprise, and my surprise, it didn't turn out that way and fate let them continue with their plans. While at the top, even though this could all end his life, Philippe had thing in mind, walk on that wire, no matter what happens. Some would call him crazy, others will call him brave, what I call him in the man on wire. Although he did get caught and then arrested for his act, now he has finally done something the world hasn't seen before, and since it's on film, anyone will be able to watch this astonishing daredevil in play.
