He pretty ,much single handedly changed the thoughts towards the WTC after his walk. What he did gave the towers an identity, The towers were empty and unpopular after construction and businesses stayed away. The Walk changed all that. NYC owes him a debt of gratitude for what he did.
Then Sgt. Charles N. Daniels, retired as a captain of the NY PAPD. He died on October 16th, 2020 at 84 years old. He was buried at the Cross Cemetery in North Arlington, NJ. Rest in Peace.
Thank you very much for this information, I've often wondered about him and that I always think about lives before and after defining moments as I would imagine his life was after living through two...
Depuis que le film walk est sortie je dois avouer que mon rapport aux choses aux gens qui m'entourent à considérablement changé... j'avais connaissance de "l'exploit", même si ce mot n'est pas approprié pour ce que MR PTITS à réalisé avec ses amis en 1974.... Je suis né 3 ans après cette date et j'ai pas mal bourlingué..... Mais quel bonheur, quelle bouffée d'oxygène de pouvoir entre apercevoir l'énergie mystique que l'on peut mettre en oeuvre pour attindre ses objectifs.... Mr Petit nous rappel avec force et conviction qu'il n'y a pas de rêve inavouable, que toutes les vérités, les attentes, les choix, les passions si elles sont entières franche et honnêtes n'ont pas de frontière. Phillipe petit à réalisé ce qu'il était. ...tout le monde devrait en être capable et devrait pouvoir le realiser......
I love what they did at ground zero though, with the reflecting pools being where the towers once stood. But i think they should have rebuilt the twins. Not on the same spot where they stood though, that will always be hallowed ground, but they should have risen again in total defiance.
Director of WTC operations at the time, Guy Tozzoli. He wanted publicity and such because he had all that space to rent out. He helped drop the charges against Petit and what you said is right, he gave him a lifetime pass to the observatory on 2 WTC.
@1:40 Reporter: “As spectacular sites goes, how would you rate this?” Police: “Supreme, the apex of excitement.” Wow I actually just finished watching the movie and I must say. When they were up there in the WTC pulling the wire and his performances. You can tell Petit was determined to do this and the confidence at it’s all time high.
Cop told him we are gonna send a helicopter and pluck you off the wire...Petit said to himself smiling after 50 minutes South tower here I come!! Hardly any safety measures taken here... absolutely mind blowing ♥️💯
