2 people climb to top of NYC’s Empire State Building, fly banner

Two people could be seen with a banner at the very top of the Empire State Building in New York City Wednesday afternoon. 

The two, who appear to be a man and a woman, are wearing masks. 

“When the power of love beats the love of power the world knows peace,” the banner reads. 

It was not immediately clear how the two managed to climb all the way to the top of the tower. 

It happened just around noon Wednesday. 

Shortly reaching the top and flying the banner, one of the two began to descend, but then made their way back to the top. 

Other people could be seen milling about on building’s observation deck below, as normal. 

Check back soon for more on this developing story.
