What does it feel like to be alive?

Mich Kemeter on the Taft Point in Yosemite, CA is walking unprotected a 30m /99 feet long highline both ways.

    Holy, indeed.

    I don’t think I need to risk certain death, with the prospect of failure imminent and survive to know I’ve surmounted some things. Death is in our future, folks. Do I need to walk a tight-rope over a chasm to feel alive? The chasm I walk over doesn’t seem as deep, but just as fraught with peril. I feel alive just the same.

    I don’t mean to diminish Mich’s accomplishment.

    He’s barefoot and shirtless, Sheila. Does that mean he’s a beachcomber?

    Shit, I do that pantsless.
