Dooood! What the? Okay, check this out. Guys, the daredevil couple from that Netflix climbing documentary got engaged on top of the Empire State Building. And then they were immediately taken into custody. So it was a proposal and an arrest, together. We climb cranes with no ropes for fun. So the Empire State Building, with a floor and a railing, this was our safe romantic option. I got down on one knee, she said yes, and then the police came. This is normal for us. Usually we are running from them. This time, we just waited politely. For us the scary part was never the height. It was not even the handcuffs. The scary part is the wedding. So they got engaged and arrested in the same ten minutes. For these two, that is not a red flag. That is the honeymoon. Duuude... What the. (sigh)
