During this history-making walk, and many others throughout his celebrated career, knots have always been indispensable components-the guardian angels protecting his life in the sky.\u003cbr\u003e\nAfter years of hands-on research, Philippe presents Why Knot?, a guide to tying his essential knots. Philippe's own practical sketches illustrate original methods and clear, clever tying instructions. Photographs in which special knots were used during spectacular high-wire walks, quirky knot trivia, personal anecdotes, helpful tips, magic tricks, and special tying challenges ensure that, if you're not already nuts for knots, Petit will transform you into a knot aficionado.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ANT Stores","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44815955001530,"sku":"ING-ENG-0433","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0684\/6952\/2618\/files\/9781419706769-us-300.jpg?v=1746551488","url":"https:\/\/checkout.s101.com\/products\/why-knot","provider":"S101","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
