Would it be possible for a tight rope walker to walk on a rope with the rope being completely straight?

If the rope is horizontal, then it would not be possible for a tight rope walker to walk on the rope with the rope being completely straight. No amount of tension in a perfectly straight rope can support any amount of weight that is exactly perpendicular to it. But don't worry. If the rope itself has any weight, then it's not possible for a horizontal rope to be completely straight, for exactly the same reason.
