	Description:		Mickey Wilson is an American slackliner. It's a sport a bit like tightrope walking, except that instead of a rope or a wire, you walk across flat webbing which stretches and bounces like a trampoline. When one of his friends was almost strangled by his own rucksack while on a chair-lift at a skiing resort, Mickey used his slacklining skills to save the day.
