Empire State Building climbers unfurl banner quoting Jimi Hendrix
Personally I think anyone who climbs the Empire State Building should be killed by biplanes, whether or not they’re a gorilla
The planes’ orientation is none of my business
no, it wasn't the planes. Twas beauty killed the climbers
yeah but you own a biplane company.
Mamdani has really mishandled this whole thing.
there’s a guy sitting in a hangar in hackensack just waiting for his phone to ring
Disagree mr bluesky. I think it should be on a case-by-case basis. Some gorillas belong up there, some don't. It's the same for humans. We're SO similar.
Happening Now Be still my heart "WHEN THE POWER OF LOVE OVERCOMES THE LOVE OF POWER, THE WORLD WILL KNOW PEACE" 🕊 Actually Hendrix never said this but 19th century British Prime Minister Gladstone came close The quote is associated to Jimi Hendrix I HOPE FOR THEIR SAFETY
Another Act of Protest today 👇 Watch at Jessica Denson utube live Rep. Al Green was present to show his support
Once they climbed down safely, NYpD whisked them away. Their names were revealed on the news. But, True Love ❤️ is still wonderful.
Yes, it was a modified version of Gladstone's original quote, but it's a great sentiment and Hendrix may well have paraphrased it - it was certainly something he would've embraced. Anyway, I love this protest. Much respect to those daring rebels. And congratulations to both of them 💍!
They’re gonna need a Go Fund Me!
Watching it on TV I was getting dizzy
They've got guts, and guts is enough.
Two people have climbed to the top of the Empire State Building in New York City to fly Jimi Hendrix's quote "When the power of love beats the love of power, the world knows peace."
How is New York spinning while the helicopter stays facing the couple from the same position?
Watching this is giving me vertigo
I'm surprised there's not a traffic cone on it
And then he proposed. Fair play to both of them.
Wow! The Empire State Building is now a spinning machine. Very brave couple.
Jimi Hendrix or Bob Marley?
climbing the Empire State Building and not even bothering to dress in a gorilla suit?? Arrest
I also would've accepted Spider-Man.
Much like how objectively funny crimes should be legal, not going for the bit should net you some community service with a clown college.
But it's not National Gorilla Suit Day (January 31).
It’s awfully hot right now. Do they make them in linen or madras fabrics?
I’m just glad I’m not planning on getting engaged. Motherfuckers like that guy give people unrealistic expectations
I'm all for expressions of love, but yeah. Not doing that bit is missing THE opportunity. Especially when it's a marriage proposal.
Two Russian climbers scaled New York’s Empire State Building on Wednesday as part of a death-defying marriage proposal. Ivan Beerkus and Angela Nikolau, stars of Netflix’s “Skywalkers” documentary, were arrested after dangling from the iconic 1,500-foot building’s spire.
Wait, so it was a surprise proposal? They just happened to summit the Empire State Building spire on a recreational climb?
Not material but there are parts of me tingling uncomfortably just watching the video of them hanging off the tower.
So Netflix pays people to do illegal stupid stunts?
So are they going to be deported?
On behalf of NYC I can say with certainty that we are not amused. I don’t know their show & now I will never watch it. Selfish self-promoting pricks. There’s nothing romantic about what they pulled.

Now climbing the Empire State Building is crazy. But getting proposed to and getting this shot. I’m sorry sis ate that 💍
