  • On April 19, 1962 three German high-wire aerialists of the Circus Berlin's Zugspitz ladder act thrilled World's Fair workers by trying out their act high above the fairgrounds on a steel cable they had strung between the roof of the Memorial Stadium and a point 376 feet high on the Space Needle. Siegfried Cimarro, 30, of West Berlin drove a motorcycle with specially grooved wheels on the cable, to a 300-foot height while Rudi Berg, 32, of Essen and Peter Czaya, 25, of West Berlin rode on a steel-pipe stabilizing.
