A man was taken into custody early Monday after hanging off the side of Trump Tower from a rope for 13 hours, demanding to speak to President Donald Trump.
The man, who is in his 20s, dangled from the tower’s 16th-floor balcony beginning at about 5:30 p.m. Sunday, asking to speak to the president and trying to get his message to the media, according to Chicago Police spokesman Tom Ahern. Police officers at the scene said they believed the man was using a climbing harness.
The man threatened to kill himself, Chicago police said. A negotiator was on the deck trying to get the man down, according to Ahern.

Wasn’t Kanye was it?
Wanna stop this silly crap? Cut the rope.
well THAT didn’t work
Despite the stupidness of his actions, I’m glad to see things turned out ok.
For one thing, if it hadn’t, it would have been Trump’s fault (per the media and those with TDS).
Probably when his soaking wet underwear achieved ambient air temperature, it was more than he could take.
Oh crap! He survived.
He is still as mentally ill as before. They’ll probably let him go soon enough.
Never saw anyone want to talk to Barry, Hillary or Biden that bad.
Should have cut the rope.
Has anyone alerted the Darwin Awards Induction Committee?
No clean underwear! 13 hours? Sheesh!
A past Chicago fire chief used fire hoses on a guy climbing a building!
Hose goes on @1min 30 sec in.
