“#Daredevil scales Queensboro Bridge, live-streams stand-off with cops<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n A daredevil scaled the Queensboro Bridge during rush hour Thursday, perching over the skyline for nearly an hour and drawing a massive police response \u2014 while live-streaming the whole thing on YouTube<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

The thrill-seeker, streaming under the handle Smooth Sanchez IRL, started scaling the span\u2019s upper level around 4:42 p.m., according to the NYPD.<\/p>\n

As traffic slowed to a crawl and highly trained Emergency Service Unit cops gathered on the roadway below, the man narrated the surreal scene and communicated with viewers, many of whom tipped small amounts of money along with personalized messages read by an automated voice \u2014 several of them racist or otherwise offensive in nature.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI was just doing this for fun,\u201d he said at one point as cops were preparing to come up to get him. \u201cMy comedy is edgy, and I just wanted to get a better view.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s been a hell of a ride, hasn\u2019t it, guys?\u201d<\/p>\n

As a harness-wearing cop was preparing to ascend the span, the amateur Spider-Man boasted of his own climbing prowess.<\/p>\n

\u201cWow, it\u2019s really not that hard. You don\u2019t need rope, you know that?\u201d<\/p>\n

But he assured the app<\/a>roaching cops that he wasn\u2019t trying to make their lives difficult, and had no intention of jumping.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ll cooperate,\u201d he yelled down to them, adding at another point, \u201cGuys, I\u2019m not suicidal. \u2026 I just wanted to take content to the next level, and I was just having fun.\u201d<\/p>\n

Shortly before a cop reached him, the man encouraged any family that might be watching to take care of the money he raked in through the stunt.<\/p>\n

\u201cMom, if anybody in my family is watching this, access all these donations through my PayPal, if I do get arrested,\u201d he said. \u201cAsk the officers for my phone if I get arrested.<\/p>\n

\u201cIs it a crime or no, sir?\u201d he asked of one lawman moving in, with the off-mic cop appearing to answer \u2018no.\u2019<\/p>\n

As his rescuer carefully continued towards him, he struck a friendly tone, asking, \u201cWhat\u2019s going on, sir? How are you?<\/p>\n

\u201cGuys, this is the end of the live-stream,\u201d he said, ending it of his own volition with the cop just inches away. \u201cPeace out, I\u2019ll be back next time.\u201d<\/p>\n

The stream went dead at 5:34 p.m., but the video remains up on YouTube<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The NYPD indicated on Twitter<\/a> that the span-scaler \u2014 whose real name was not immediately disclosed \u2014<\/span>\u00a0will be \u201ccharged with multiple crimes.\u201d\n <\/div>\n
