Fans Applaud Jenna Bush Hager as She Completes Impressive Physical Feat in New Video
Jenna Bush Hager is dipping her foot in new territory as she attempts a physical challenge—literally.
The Today show star and cohost Hoda Kotb recently took a trip to Austin, Texas, (the former first daughter hails from Dallas), and while in town, they embarked upon an adventurous outing together.
While outside in a wooded area, the TV personality tried her hand at walking across a slack wire, which looks to be similar to a tightrope, and is described as "an acrobatic circus act that involves the balancing skills of moving along a flexible, thin wire suspended in the air," per Wikipedia.

Video footage from the stunt was uploaded via Instagram on Friday, Oct. 25 to the official account of Today With Hoda and Jenna, showing Bush Hager putting her best foot forth as Kotb held her hand in support, offering encouraging words from start to finish.
"My girl is doing it!" the longtime broadcaster offered half-way through her pal's journey from one side to the other.
The short clip found the 42-year-old successful in completing the balancing act, much to the elation of Kotb, who excitedly and proudly greeted her with a double high-five as she jumped down from the wire.
"JBH was a natural on the slack wire!" the snippet was captioned.
Fans flooded the comment section with praise for both the endeavor and the bestie duo they simply can't get enough of.
"Look at this awesomeness with our only Jenna Bush Hager making her very hard walk with the help of her girl, that’s always ‘got her’ by her side. I absolutely can’t wait till they get back to the studio. I can’t wait to be ‘filled up with their personal stories. ??," one gushed of the pair.
"Jenna did GREAT! I laughed so hard at Hoda! That would have been me! ??," another wrote.
A third offered, "This right here sums up y’all’s relationship. Jenna, competitive, tad bit perfectionist being encouraged and praised by the world’s kindest and 'in it' Hoda," before campaigning, "We need to start up a 'Hoda Movement' to keep up the joy you have spread in your years at the Today show and NBC."
Kotb recently made the shocking announcement that she'd be stepping down from her role on Today in early 2025, leaving viewers feeling mournful about her upcoming exit from the popular TV program.
