'What I do is not about adrenaline,' he said. 'Walking a highline is my way, it's just what I do.'Zak is regarded by fans as a pioneer in the field.<img src="http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2009/08/28/article-0-0632BDC8000005DC-556_634x421.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2009/08/28/article-0-0632BE76000005DC-148_634x421.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />His fascination with the sport began in the 1980s, when he visited Yosemite National Park with some friends and discovered a slackline. He has travelled through Austria, Germany, America, Italy and the Czech Republic. Besides the highlining shown here, Zak also enjoys slacklining, where he crosses lakes just feet from the surface.<img src="http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2009/08/28/article-0-0632C3F8000005DC-618_634x921.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2009/08/28/article-0-0632BDCF000005DC-881_634x369.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></blockquote>
