Sales tax should be included in the $100 so the city can be happy.

NY Times should charge people $100 and have each climber sign a waiver. This is a great money making idea.

It only cost us city tax payers like a million dollars for them to do what they did. -Snoopy It cost the city a million dollars to have some cops stand around on the sidewalk? Or to take the elevator to the top floor to arrest the guy(s)?

It's great to see how some 'New Yorkers' complain in one post about NYC being tamed and sanitized then turn around and whine about someone doing something adventurous and risky.

i thought he was doing it to protest the no bicycle parking inside or outside at this brand new state of the art so called green building.

I thought real New Yorkers should tolerate adventurous personas better than that... Thumbs up to both climbers!

Give them a break. It only cost us city tax payers like a million dollars for them to do what they did. Next time grease the last two floors.

Is there a separate award in the Guinness book of records for the fastest climb of the new New York Times building?

Can he be charged with "lame copycat stunt"?

We should all climb up to the boardroom level, unzip, and take a good piss.

if this keeps up, the building might have to remove some of those rods to keep this from being a regular occurrence. Ironic-- the first climber was supposedly doing so to get the word out about global warming (global warming-- what's that?) and those rods were incorporated into the design as an environmentally friendly way to help keep the building cool. Maybe they should have wrapped the building in barbed wire instead.
