13 Million Watch Skywire Walk
by Matt Webb Mitovich
6/24/13

Discovery’s coverage of Nik Wallenda‘s high-wire walk across a Grand Canyon chasm averaged 8.5 million total viewers on Sunday evening, with 13 million laying witness to the daredevil’s actual 22-minute trek.

All told, it stands (heh) as the cabler’s high-rated special since spring 2000′s "Walking with Dinosaurs" and "Raising the Mammoth", and its No. 3 special of all time.

Leading out of that, "Naked and Afraid’s" debut held onto 4.2 mil, making it the cabler’s No. 2 series premiere ever, trailing only 2012′s "Amish Mafia".

Too Bad he didn't fall off, then this network could have done something they were originally intended to show, science, namely GRAVITY!

If he did fall, Joel Olsteen probably would've did his funeral. LoL!

Watching him walk across that was like going to a church revival...."sweet Jesus"....lol, that's all he could say the whole time. I was actually kinda hoping he did fall cause he's a dumbass.
