Anyone who thinks walking in heels is difficult should ask Mia Noblet for advice.
The Nelson native and current owner of the women91ÂãÁÄÊÓƵ™s highline record was invited to Zhangjiajie, China, for a short but difficult walk earlier this month.
Noblet, France91ÂãÁÄÊÓƵ™s Mimi Guesdon and Faith Dickey of the United States were asked to walk 55 metres on a slackline 60 metres off the ground.
They each had three attempts to walk the one-inch wide line while wearing a pair of heels.
Noblet, who in April set a new world record with a 614-metre walk in Brazil, finished her China walk on her first try in 22 minutes 36 seconds. Guesdon failed her first attempt but completed her second in just 9:24, while Dickey failed to cross on all three attempts.
