Two Russian rooftoppers climbed the Empire State Building without safety gear, got engaged at the top — and then got arrested
ONP Summary
Two people climbed to approximately 1,454 feet atop the Empire State Building's antenna in New York City on July 1, displaying a large banner that read 'When the power of love beats the love of power, the world will know peace.' During their roughly ten-minute presence at the summit, one climber appeared to propose marriage to the other.
Progressive: Progressive-leaning outlets used the term 'protesters' to frame the climb as a political demonstration for peace, with some also emphasizing the romantic element of the proposal that occurred at the summit.
Moderate: Centrist outlets reported the event factually, describing the climbing feat, the peace message on the banner, and the engagement moment without additional editorializing about the stunt's broader significance.
Conservative: Conservative-leaning outlets employed sensational language—calling the climb a 'wild scene' and describing the climbers as 'daredevils'—while some outlets explicitly derided the peace message as 'cringe' rather than treating it as earnest activism.
