Welcome to the long, President’s Day weekend. Here’s your Daily 70s Spot for Saturday. A commercial for the ’73 Ford Torino featuring high-wire specialist, Bill Couch.

Ford rigged a wire to the top of a Torino and forced Couch to cross it while rumbling over a course of 2x4s. Those devilish so-and-sos! Commercial aired in November of 1972.
