The Flying Wallendas became the first to cross New York’s Times Square on a tightrope 25 stories up Sunday night.

Nik and Lijana Wallenda were watched by thousands as they met in the middle of the rope, with Nik actually climbing over his sister around 18 minutes into the highwire stunt.

The duo seemed in good spirits through the whole thing, with Nik being heard saying: “This has been my life, longer than I’ve been alive.”

Lijana also sang biblical hymns, constantly telling herself she could do it after nailing the run-through 25 times in a row.

The crossing comes after Lijana was left seriously injured in 2017 after she and four others fell 30 feet from a tightrope during a rehearsal.
