* KarmaHoudini: Semi-averted. After the walk Petit was arrested and charged with trespassing and disturbing the peace. However, the district attorney made a deal that all the charges against him would be dropped if he performed a free wire-walk show for kids in Central Park. Afterwards, Petit got a lifetime pass to the observation deck of the Twin Towers, letting him visit there whenever he wanted.
