Watch as the Wallenda family does it again, crossing NASCAR's Charlotte Motor Speedway on highwire. In the past, Nik Wallenda has crossed the Little Colorado River Gorge near the Grand Canyon.

For the more recent "Flying Wallendas" stunt, he is joined by sister Lijana. The audience can be seen being still and very still, as the artists are walking without harnesses, cables or safety nets.

According to the Los Angeles Times, they were 150 feet (46 meters) high in the air, walking on a 460-foot (140-meter) long wire simultaneously. During Saturday's performance, Nik and Lijana walked the same high wire, in opposite directions.

Lijana stops when she is halfway there, and her brother has to step over her. She then gets back up and carries on with her part in the show.
