Another Flying Wallenda and another high flying stunt over Niagara Falls.
Niagara County officials announcing last night, Erendira Wallenda, a trapeze aerialist, and wife of tightrope walker Nik Wallenda, plans to hang by her teeth from a tether connected to a helicopter flying over the Falls.
County officials have approved spending $35,000 to help pay for costs associated with the stunt.
Niagara Parks Commission Chair Janice Thomson first heard about the stunt over Niagara Falls from our newsroom this morning.
Even though she has not been told about the stunt, Thomson says they have an excellent working relationship with the New York State Park authority and expects to hear something soon.
The date for the chopper stunt is June 15th.
It was on June 15th, 2012 that Nik Wallenda made his famous tightrope walk over Niagara Falls.
