Philippe Petit is probably best known for walking on a high wire suspended between the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in 1974.  He was arrested as soon as he came off the wire, but his act was captured in the Academy Award-winning film Man on Wire. Petit has continued to perform on the high wire, as well as to draw, teach, and to challenge himself constantly. "If you are not taunted by artistic challenge at least once a day you're dead," he says.

Philippe joins Laura in studio for a special conversation about his life's work, his challenges, and his desire to inspire people to do great works. He also took a GRITtv crew to Clic Gallery, currently hosting a show of his drawings and photographs from his master class in tightrope walking at the Streb Lab for Action Mechanics.
