Global live productions require extensive coordination across production, media operations, and languages to ensure smooth transmission to audiences worldwide. The Skywire live broadcast with Nik Wallenda had over 30 million viewers across 186 countries, was the #1 program on US television, and set a social media record for Discovery Channel with over 1.3 million tweets. Future global live events will continue to navigate challenges of international time zones, on-site facilities, and customizing content for varied language audiences.
