This extremely large and agile resident of an unclear downtown address achieved regional notoriety when a video of his high-wire-walking antics ended up on sports and pop culture blog Barstool, almost exactly this time last year. He was often seen over the course of last summer repeating the standup feat on the wires over Franklin, Hope, and Bradford streets, then, suddenly, he was gone.
