And the college administrators split their unexpected bonus amongst themselves

They used to be The Jackson Five until gravity claimed two of them.

Philippe Petit is a French highwire artist who gained fame for his unauthorized highwire walks between the towers of Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris in 1971 and of Sydney Harbour Bridge in 1973, as well as between the Twin Towers of the World Trade Centre in New York City in August 1974. Still very much alive, 75 years old. Four films dedicated to his life-story.

I’m surprised no one called the bomb squad on that unclaimed package in New York.

I’ve been to the top of the Empire State Bldg, no way would I do that! Not even lean over the edge. Gives me the heebie jeebies!

RBION up to the usual standard. “The fearless ‘Three Jacksons,’ acrobats, Jarley Smith, Jewell Waddek, and Jimmy Kerrigan perform a balancing act on a ledge on the 86th floor of the Empire State Building in Manhattan on August 21, 1934. The act took place 1,050 feet (320m) above the pavement with no safety net.”

How High is Up?

I saw an act similar to the Jacksons in a Tijuana dive bar. There were 3 girls, all naked. They would have gotten a standing ovation when they finished but none of the guys there could stand up for a while.

The Head of New York City College was asked to comment on the $180,000 donation but was unavailable for questions.

Apparently there was a sudden family crisis in Bermuda which he had to attend.

Unfortunately, The Three Jacksons met a tragic death when hit by a swarm of jumping ants.

the person who sent the box saw the story on the news,and said he sent an even $200,000…
