A&E orders stunt series The Impossible Live, details Volcano Walk Live special

Deadline

The Impossible Live will follow the world's greatest daredevils as they attempt the most death-defying stunts over the course of five two-hour episodes. The stunts include: "parachute-less jump from a plane onto a speeding train, a motorcycle jump off a cliff in which the daredevil must drop the bike and grab on to the skids of a passing helicopter before the motorcycle plummets to the ground below, and the highest wire walk ever attempted from one hot air balloon to another." A&E also plans to air Volcano Walk Live featuring daredevil Bello Nock. “We’ve spent two years traveling the world with top volcanologists and engineers planning this untethered world record-breaking high-wire walk," says Nock. "We first considered a volcano in Nicaragua but recent geological events have made the lava lake too small so we decided on a larger, more active and far more challenging volcano in East Africa. This is the wire walk that no one will ever be able to top!”
