His name was Phillipe Petit and I'd say he's world famous and pretty 
obviously who the writer is writing about.

As for the other, he's making a small joke on two different readings of

There was IN FACT a French tightrope walker dancing between the Twin 
Towers(not sure about the date), but I do not get your mail's title. Is 
this tostart a discussion what sports and literature have in common? Or 
is it toprevent people with no Nba interest from opening up your mail? 
And if so:Why?  ----------------------------------------> To:
