A 27-year-old American rooftopper, Justin Casquejo has drawn public attention after video of him climbing the 1435ft Empire State Building, New York, resurfaced online.
Casquejo who goes by the name, livejn, on his X handle, was renown for his daredevil stunt.
The documented ascent of the Empire State Building which dated back to July 2024 resurfaced on X on Friday.
While the feat attracted admiration for the daring stunt maker, several others criticised the illegal and risky feat which had over time led to his arrest for trespassing.
