- Summary:
- In his series 'Redesign my Brain', award winning documentary maker Todd Sampson sets out to learn how to manage fear. To demonstrate it is possible to overcome fear Todd will walk on a wire across two skyscrapers, a world first for someone new to wire walking. This clip is from 'Make Me Brave' Part 2. Todd requests the help of a team of practised gymnasts to get him to grips with wire walking. Later, Luke Dawson, a Neuro-engineer, measures Todd's physical fear of heights. To learn to face this fear, Todd abseils face first down the side of a 21-floor building. But Todd needs to learn to avoid panic during his skywalk; Luke tests Todd's stress levels in order to see how his body will react.
