It was pretty amazing. My butt was puckered the whole walk.

The feat itself is ridiculously insane and amazing. However, I feel like Nik is turning into a drama queen/attention whore as well as trying to milk every cent he can out of his stunts. It feels like he's more concerned about profits now than actually doing the amazing stunts.

Also, he needs to drop his acting of being scared while doing it to make it more interesting for TV. It was very clear he was 100% confident, he even said he was, yet he continued to pretend to be scared and it got annoying very quickly.
