- Professional slackliner Faith Dickey attempts things that plenty of us wouldn't dare try. How about traversing a slackline barely 2 inches in width across a canyon, hundreds of feet in the air? A car accident at age 18 changed Faith's life, teaching her to live every moment to its fullest. This is the story of how Faith Dickey became one of the best slackliners in the world.

She's the most energetic slacker ever.
Ha ha ha
Faith: “There’s so much falling involved.”
Literally everyone: “Oh! Really?!”
I've known her sister (but not Faith) for over a decade and I love to see how far Faith has come in that time. Just the way she stands up on the line is mind blowing to me...
Wow she’s incredible. Just looking at this terrifies me 😭 but it’s incredible to see how passionate she is about this. Some people spend their whole lives trying to figure out what their passion is. Kudos to her
Like fr I could never get to be other side 😭
"Faith" is really the most fitting name for this woman
it's incredible to me to think about all the unconscious mental math her brain is doing out there in the air. all this complicated physics of air and tension and body movement, boiled down to pure instinct and muscle memory
@@mailhimrussellbrand336gmai6No
my hands are dripping in sweat watching this 😰
I made it upstairs today without falling, it was like seeing all colors for the first time, instead of just black and blue.
The real question is, how do you setup that rope in the first place? Helicopter? Grappling hook gun? James Bond?
3:47 ??
@@brittneyx3 But how do they get one end to the other side? Did I miss it in the video? 🙈
@@Macusercom I would assume two people hike to the location. Then they split up to go to either side so they can both set up anchors. If you attach the line to a weight you might be able to throw it across, or I suppose they could use a crossbow.
@@tamanduastance2655 They also could climb up both sides and have either side of the rope with them I assume
Depends on the canyon.
Either rappel down the side and climb up the other side while carrying the webbing.
Walk around if the canyon allows it.
Or use a drone to fly a thin line attached to a thick line over.
This was amazing to learn about!! Human beings can truly do amazing things!!
A story for women through balance there mind there thoughts there brave ness there heart there balance there fail s there emotionally hope gains . Lots stuff. Just shows not just one thing in ourselves. 🙏🏻

Wow

Must be crazy strong.
Watching this makes me dizzy like I'm going to fall
Hello there
SHE HAS STRONG FEET!
I thought it said "Pro Slacker"!
How do you trust that no one’s screwing with your slack line
A woman with alotta FAITH
National Geographic had a series about Highliners that had the current world record owner (which is in fact another woman) but the series ended before showing the last episode and there's no info for another season... I search online but didn't find why that happend... If anyone knows, please reply.
Why ?
Very Nice Bro!-Get Good People!
My feet are getting so clammy

This video fits the name of this channel.
I would feel like I was facing off against God if I was forced to walk that slack line.
"I don't have a death wish"
* * * Does slacklining * * *
Deathshow Pro Maxxx💯
Victim of circumstances or opportunistic motivated talent?
Eventually she became the latter. But it didn't come easy. 1 in 10,000? 100,000? 1,000,000? Whichever it is, she grabbed it's throat & didn't let go.
Kudos young lady, enjoy life, you earned it. The rope is at your feet!
Hog riders
How the fak they balance on the rope???
Amazing video! Cudos for bringing our sport out and showing the public! One thing I however did not like was the fact that they made it look like she is the only woman in the world to Highline, it feels very Bias, feels like they are trying to say that she was the one to bring slackline to the world and that she was the one to make it popular but that's just clearly not true.... Hundreds of women and men are at this and even higher levels of highlines, the world record is now over 2km and it was also walked by a woman... They should have brought in multiple highliners and not focus on one and try make her sound like the god of slacklines :D there is many other people that had a much bigger influence on the sport than her, it feels like they ignored everything and everyone else and focused on making her look like the god of slacklines / highlines. Again, I love the video, we need content like this to popularise the sport but to create a fake image of the sport by praising and hyping up one single individual that is good at the sport and making her sound like she is the inventor and brought it to the world is just not the way to do it...
The only mention of anyone else in this video is a quick "Rock climbers found a new way to pass time" :D without those people and people like Chongo, Dean and many others, there would be no Faith Dickey and you guys would not have this video.
Gee, she’s super humble lol.
Normal
I feel like she and alex honnold would be good friends

Oh the placement of her feet matters? Does it? Really?
Dating her and she tell you that you gotta bounce cuz tommorow she is walking on ropes at 500m height
She would be fun!!
"I'll show you how a man walks across a flaccid cord"
ALHAMDULILLAH(SWT)- ASTAGHFIRULLAH(SWT).
Smh. A sl / cr-acker always wants to be a pioneer / colonizer of something. . …..
NOPE NOPE NOPE
Bfd...she may as well be 2 feet abovea mattress.
I'm a professional slacker. it's about the same. she acts like she's so important and changing the world. lol. gimme a break
That's great, but if I hear pioneer out of a millennial one more time, I will scream. The people who started it in the eighties are the pioneers, she is following in their footsteps. Yes, she's pushing boundaries and that's great, but she didn't start the sport.
Nobody claimed that she started the sport. They said she's a pioneer for women in the sport.
I'll bet there were women doing it in the 80's and 90's or whatever.
fake
Shows severe lack of PRUDENCE - - - don't encourage young people
I must laugh at the point where WIRED is selling us "There is science to this stuff". Sure. "The Universe is science". Of course, there is science to this stuff. There is also Science in Baseball and riding a bull. ;) She is just a woman walking on slack line. Yes, impressive. But it is just obsession in one sport. I will not get excited about someone walking on a slack line just because of a fancy video.
... are you okay?
@@RoyalRoses Yes. I am very ok. Thanks :) Might be a culture thing. Some people get more excited what people can do with their own body. Climbing, slack lining, sport. I am not so much. Which is fine. It is just funny that when people making videos about a sport and put "science" in it to make it sound bigger. That is all.
Men get so salty when women accomplish great things, lol.
Wow she’s incredible. Just looking at this terrifies me 😭 but it’s incredible to see how passionate she is about this. Some people spend their whole lives trying to figure out what their passion is. Kudos to her
