Philippe Petit looks back on his phenomenal 1974 Twin Towers walk. On Wednesday and Thursday of this week, he will walk a highwire across the nave of St. John the Divine in New York City, the world's largest cathedral. 

"My love for magnificent places and my love for walking on the tightrope and sharing with an audience my passion has not changed," he said.

People reference his highwire act as "just like his dance in the sky."
