"I started freaking out because I didn't have binoculars or anything I was just praying."Upon completion of the walk, Wallenda kissed the ground. A short time later he gave the president of the Navajo Nation a small replica of the Empire State Building, which represented the height of his walk across the canyon.Another reason Wallenda may have given a replica of the Empire State building is that he says his next walk may be a walk between two skyscrapers in New York City.

But he also said the view, from 1,500 feet above the snaking river, was "breathtaking.""It was a dream come true," Wallenda said of the crossing.
