In an effort to gain Trump’s attention, what would you do?
Well, ‘Steve from Virginia’ – as authorities have now dubbed him – used suction cups and scaled the Trump Tower in Midtown Manhattan yesterday.

He started his climb on the 5th storey, but he only made it to the 21st – that’s when officials pulled him in through a window using a rope and some man-force.
Other efforts by the police to get to the man included smashing in windows above him and inflating giant cushions below him in case he tumbled off the 58-story Trump headquarters.
