Salvador Lopez is a Davenport native who is known to all at "Chavo."

says after decades of living in the city, he never thought he'd do something like this.

"I worked here when I was 15 years old," says Lopez, "but I never thought I'd be coming down the side of the building."

"Unless there was a fire or something," as he chuckles.

Lopez will now see the historic Blackhawk Hotel from a new height.

When asked about how he feels right now, all he could do was simply laugh and respond "pretty high."

He raised $1,200 for the local Big Brother Big Sisters of Mississippi Valley. All to rappel down the 11-story hotel, safely.

"I thought I just had to go down by the rope," he says. "Otherwise, it's going to be kind of hard, but I think I can make it."

Just like Spiderman, the Army veteran glided down 140 feet effortlessly.

"This is a lot of fun," he comments as he descends.

The thrill of the heights was nothing compared to what was waiting for him on the ground.

His family and friends, as well as other spectators, sang a song, for another mile marker in his life: his 90th birthday.

Proving at any age, new adventures are on the horizon.

"I'm excited as a 90-year-old could be."
