They walked unsecured into the spire of a famous skyscraper.

Two individuals climbed to the top of the Empire State Building in New York City without safety equipment and hung up a banner declaring 'When love's power surpasses love of power, the world experiences peace.' The pair spent several minutes at the summit before descending. During their descent, they stopped on one of the platforms where the man proposed to his partner, leading to a romantic embrace and photos. They were eventually arrested by police, though authorities have not yet explained how they managed to reach the top. The incident caused significant disruption, prompting road closures and increased police activity around the building.
