wirewalkers
Balance on cables
Wirewalkers are performers who walk on tightropes or high wires, typically in circus acts or street performances.
The term emphasizes the skill of traversing a thin cable suspended above the ground: The wirewalkers crossed between the twin towers.
Figuratively, a wirewalker is anyone who navigates precarious situations with careful balance.
